Greater Waco Young Professionals Quality of Life Survey

Young Professionals are a key demographic in any healthy, vibrant city, serving as the community's trendsetters, innovators, and policy changers. Having a strong cohort of 20-40 year olds in Waco can help to ensure that this city grows responsibly and sustainably, all while making it safer, more entertaining, and more prosperous.

The Greater Waco Chamber and Waco Young Professionals are undertaking a survey to find out what Young Professionals want in Greater Waco.  We want to know how you live, work, and play, and what opportunities you want to see in our community.  Please take a few minutes to respond to our Quality of Life Survey. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/7YVCKXL

Thanks for making Greater Waco a better place to live!

Young Professionals growing in Waco

The Waco Tribune Herald has an excellent story by Bill Teeter today about the growth in young professionals in the Greater Waco area.  President Erik Hill and  YP members Lara Robertson and Rusty Betts were all quoted about their story as young professionals in Waco.  From social opportunities to business networking, the Waco YPs continue to serve as a common ground for young professionals in our area.  Check out the story: Waco Seeing More Growth in Young Professionals.
