On Friday, December 5th, North Coast Young Professionals (NCYP) welcomed 52 local professionals to their annual Christmas party at Tony’s, celebrating the season with networking, music, and festive fun.
Guests enjoyed live music from Jim Mazza, caricatures by Darian Shepherd of UNDRSTR, cookies from Berardis, and a spread of food and drinks provided by Tony’s.
The event featured dancing, mingling, and the NCYP “Jingle Mingle” game, led by Steering Committee member Shelbi Neidler. During the game, participants exchanged business cards while learning interesting facts about each other.
“I had such a great time and really enjoyed the NCYP Christmas Party. I met several people and I’m excited about the opportunity to collaborate with them in the future,” said Saprina Hayes, Assistant Director of Nursing at OVH.
“The NCYP Annual Christmas Party brought young professionals from across the region together in a festive and inclusive setting that encouraged connection, collaboration, and community,” said Jarvis Cole-Caston, Talent Development & Engagement Manager at the Greater Sandusky Partnership. Events like this go beyond celebration, they create space for relationships that can lead to career opportunities, business partnerships, and lasting friendships.”
