What do we do?
We're busy. We meet monthly on the third Wednesday at the Willis (formerly Sears) Tower in downtown Chicago for networking and a career-related educational program. We also hold spring and fall receptions. Smaller
groups also meet monthly in the city and the suburbs for informal networking
get-togethers.
