Kickoff Celebration

A New Space. A New Network. A New Chapter.

You’re invited to explore, connect, and celebrate as we launch the reimagined Young Professionals network and welcome you into the Chamber’s brand-new home.

What to Expect

This open house style kickoff event marks the official next step in unifying the former Holland/Zeeland Young Professionals (HYP) with the West Coast Chamber. It’s a celebration of what’s ahead — and a moment to honor the journey that brought us here. Attendees will experience:

• An exclusive first look inside our brand new Chamber space
• Hear what's next from Chamber President & CEO, Jodi Owczarski, and West Coast YPs Chair, Rachel Shelton (Brief remarks at 4:30 PM)
• Snacks, light appetizers and plenty of time to meet other YPs

 Who Should Attend

• Young Professionals/People from all industries and backgrounds (roughly 35 and under)
• Newcomers to the Lakeshore community 
• Former HYP members
• Emerging leaders looking to plug in
• And bring a friend, or two!

Be Part of What’s Next
