We are extremely excited about the upcoming year for YPO! We ended the 2008/2009 fiscal year with 273 members, and had a great year of successful events. We are celebrating our 2nd anniversary as a committee of the Peoria Area Chamber of Commerce, a merger that has provided great strength for YPO. As we look forward to the upcoming year, we plan to provide programming that will enhance our members' professional lives while we work to further engage young professionals in our great community.

YP's have an important voice in our community, and we want to provide avenues for your voices to be heard. This year we will be conducting a number of surveys to measure your interests and provide programs that you want to see! Be sure to get involved in the opportunities that are provided through the Community Connection section of the website, or join one of the YPO Subcommittees.
Our challenge to you is to help us grow the YPO membership. The more active participants that we have in YPO, the stronger our network becomes. Bring a friend to the next social, or invite friends to join the YPO Facebook group to help spread the word about YPO!

We hope to see you at the upcoming YPO events this year!
