Free networking event 11/12 6-830 pm at the MAC Club

Partners in Diversity & Multnomah Athletic Club invite you to attend Say Hey, NW
 
Wednesday, November 12th from 6:00 – 8:30 PM
The Multnomah Athletic Club:  1849 S.W. Salmon Street, Portland, OR 97207

Say Hey will be a very special and fun event on November 12th. It will be another party to welcome new professionals of color relocating to Oregon or Southwest Washington but there will also be a couple of special "twists" to make Say Hey a kick-off event for the holidays!

Say Hey will be "festive" and you are encouraged to dress-up and make it a special occasion. Newcomers often report that Oregon is "very casual" and there aren't many opportunities dress-up and feel "special". This is your chance! But most important, come to Say Hey and be a part of a special evening. Business (nice business casual is fine for men), ethnic attire, and cocktail attire will make it a beautiful evening!

There will be light Hors d'oeuvres served and a no-host bar (cash only please-no credit cards), music and lots of networking with friends and colleagues.

What else you should know about Say Hey:
Major employers in Oregon & Southwest Washington joined forces as "Partners in Diversity" in 2005 to cooperatively support diversity in the workplace and community. Say Hey was started over six years ago to honor professionals of color relocating to this area and to help them connect with a multicultural community of fellow professionals, community and professional resources.

Everyone is welcome to attend Say Hey. It is fun, multicultural, and a great opportunity for newcomers (and those of us who are "not so new") to enjoy an evening of meeting new friends and learning about what makes our community a great place to live and work.

Directions & Parking:
Parking is available on a first come basis in the MAC Parking Structure located across the street. There is a parking attendant available to direct visitors to overflow parking locations nearby if needed.
