Introducing "MBA Connect"!
Our Membership Committee is working hard to find additional ways to increase our member engagement, retention, and interest. Many of you will remember our Power Team meetings of the past. These have not been working in the past few years, so we're trying something different.
MBA Connect is a casual, social, networking event. We select an MBA Member as the 'host' for the event, and they choose the day, time, and location. We're aiming to schedule these on the second week of the month, so that we are not asking you to attend more than one meeting in a week. (Member meetings are first and third Thursdays, Open Houses are typically on forth Thursdays.) Some of these will be happy hours, others will be coffee or lunch meet ups. Everyone will be on their own tabs so there is no obligation on the host.
Jessica Dues is hosting our May MBA Connect! She's selected Limelight Restaurant and Lounge on May 8. Jessica will be there from abour 3-6 pm. Join her for an early happy hour or pop by after work to say hello.
Please feel free to reach out to Jocelyn if you would like to host an MBA Connect.
MBA is going on a road trip!
We are looking forward to visiting the new Junior Achievement Biz Town in Hillsboro. We will start with lunch and a presentation, then tour BizTown, while the kids are experiencing it!

About Junior Achievement
We inspire and empower young people to own their future economic success.
Since 1950, Junior Achievement of Oregon & SW Washington (JA) has been empowering local students by giving them the knowledge and skills they need to manage their money, plan for their futures, and make smart academic, career, and economic choices.
Delivered by business and community volunteers, our hands-on, age-appropriate programs focus on three key areas: work readiness, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy.
We're really looking forward to our Spring Auction! This will be an online auction, ending at an in person open house at Squires. Signing up here is to attend the Open House at Squires, where we will have dinner, drinks, fun, and games! Bring your friends, colleagues, and significant others!
Details on the auction coming soon.
