  Join us for May Third Thursday at White Lion Brewing Company—where great beer meets even better connections
  

  We’re bringing the YPS community together for an evening of networking, good vibes, and local flavor in one of Downtown Springfield’s favorite spots. Whether you’re looking to grow your circle, make meaningful connections, or just unwind after work, this is your chance to mix, mingle, and meet fellow young professionals in a laid-back, high-energy atmosphere.

  Expect craft brews, engaging conversations, and the kind of connections that don’t happen over LinkedIn. Come solo or bring a friend—either way, you’ll leave with new contacts and fresh energy.

   Thursday | 5:30–7:30 PM
  White Lion Brewing Company

  Let’s raise a glass to community, connection, and showing up.
