Greater Mankato Young Professionals

Greater Mankato Young Professionals

Are you a young professional age 21-39 interested in networking with others in the Greater Mankato community? Enjoy professional development with a focus on learning, socializing and community service. 

Greater Mankato Growth members have found the YP program a great, cost effective way to invest in a new to town or emerging young professional.  This program was created in 2008 to pro-actively address the retention needs of local businesses. They understand that our future generation of leaders need to get connected to each other, the community's amenities, and service opportunities. Then they can find their place in it and to tap into all that Greater Mankato has to offer.

All 24 events per year on the schedule below are included in the annual YP membership. However, you don't have to be a annual member to check out the YP Program at an individual event! And you can join anytime of the year! Join 100+ Young Professionals who are energetic emerging professionals.  Past social events have included snow tubing at Mount Kato, wine tasting on the green, YP's at the Moondogs game, pontoon cruise at Westwood Marina, Twins game, and progressive dining are a few.  Past professional development events have included results only work, leading with integrity, sales 101, customer focused service, and diversity in Mankato are a few events the YP's enjoyed.
