Rapid Growth continues its discussion with newcomers to Grand Rapids and West Michigan with New In Town: Part II, tonight (January 9th) at UICA.
We'll have a fun and interactive panel discussion with a group of young professionals who moved or returned to the area in the last couple of years.
We'll talk about:
) What brought them here
) What they heard about West Michigan before moving here
) How they've made connections in the area, and ways that the community could do a better job connecting newcomers
) The GR dating scene (for the single panelists)
) What it's like not having kids in a city known for being "a great place to raise a family"
And we'll have some activities that evening to intentionally bring newcomers and native GRapidians together.
