gsSCENE is Not Alone

This past week I was fortunate to attend the Next Generation Leadership Conference, previously known as the Young Professional Conference, in Cincinnati, OH. Over 250 young professionals gathered for the week to learn about new ideas for their young professional group, share stories and hear from some amazing speakers. One main things I learned was that gsSCENE is not alone in not only our accomplishments, but also in our struggles. Too many times I get the "gsSCENE is a social club" or "gsSCENE is just for singles who drink." The sad part is, gsSCENE does SO MUCH MORE than socialize! Just this past weekend gsSCENE participated in the 21st Annual Beach Sweep with over 26 participants. We have offered numerous professional development classes and are working on new initiatives for our members. At the conference I heard from several groups that had some awesome projects they did in their community. I walked away from the sessions geared up to come back to Myrtle Beach and take gsSCENE to the next level, AND make sure everyone knows about it!
