Pique Young Professionals Event Rescheduled for September 14th
|
Amid uncertainty about when large gatherings will be permitted or advisable, Ten at the Top has made the decision to postpone their signature young professional event, Pique, until September 14th. It was originally scheduled for March 23rd and had been rescheduled for June 15th. The event will still be held at the Huguenot Mill and Loft in downtown Greenville, with ScanSource as the presenting sponsor, and local author Sallie Holder as the keynote speaker.
Attendees who have already purchased tickets will be issued a refund if they are unable to attend at the later date; those who have tickets and do still wish to attend do not need to take any further action.
The event focuses on connecting young professionals across the Upstate, giving them opportunities to network as well as to hear from experts on topics that are relevant to their working lives.

Join us for the second webinar in our FREE Recycling Resilience series and get the resources you need to adapt and thrive. While questions and uncertainty are swirling about what a new recycling “normal” will look like, communities are committed to recycling. Programs across the Carolinas are showing creativity and resiliency. Many are achieving a delicate balance to keep employees safe while maintaining core services. Others are making sure residents continue to receive the recycling services they value despite tight budgets at the local level. NC DEACS and SC DHEC will provide a bird’s eye view of what’s happening in the two states and outline strategies that are keeping programs evolving. This event is free but registration is required. Please register now and we look forward to speaking with you!

| Don’t leave for a holiday vacation or staycation without taking time to connect once more with your colleagues in the business community!
Our Business After Hours is still virtual, but there’s time for quality contacts and sharing of great ideas. We’ll break into small groups to engage each other in conversation; be prepared to socialize and share thoughts about what’s going on in your world — work-related or not! We’ll throw in a few fun questions to get everyone started. If you’d like to contribute a door prize, let us know when you register so we can be prepared to recognize you! A list of all attendees registered will be shared with everyone following the event. Not so sure about the Zoom format? Here’s what one participant had to say: “I really like these virtual breakouts. I meet people I wouldn’t have met; it feels just structured enough, but still comfortable.” |
● Antonin Dvořák: Symphony No. 9 “From the New World”
● Ellen Taaffe Zwilich: Avanti!
Inspired by American dreams and legends, Dvořák created some of his greatest works while living in the United States, above all the “New World” Symphony. This program illuminates the multiple stories and influences – Native American, African-American and Czech – that Dvořák transformed in his most beloved work. Ellen Taaffe Zwilich’s Avanti! offers a contemporary interpretation of the American archetype of “moving on.”
