Networking & Social Events

The Conway Center offers several enjoyable social interactions throughout the year that allow members to build strong relationships. We believe that some of the most productive experiences are created in less formal group settings where relationships can be built, ideas shared, and new opportunities hatched.

FAMILY BUSINESS SHOWCASE

The Conway Center hosts a variety of events to bring members together and build stronger connections between current and prospective members. A favorite event is the Family Business Showcase (formerly known as Family Business Tour). Every year, family businesses host this event to share what has made their business successful, how they operate, and what their plans are for the future.

On Wednesday, July 31, 2024, John and Angela Petro will host us at High Line Car House in the Brewery District for the Together & Company Family Business Showcase.

Together & Company, a full-service catering and events company, began in 1997 as Two Caterers and has grown to provide much more than box lunches. Hear the story of how Angela Petro and a friend kicked off their business by giving away coffee and menus at traffic lights - and grew to the complete hospitality company of today, going “all in” with John joining the business just six months before the onset of the Covid pandemic. The Petros brand of vulnerability in storytelling will remind us of the importance of building for the future while allowing ourselves the space to pivot as needed.

This event on July 31 is free to Conway Center members and those in our community interested in family business but please RSVP. Guests can expect the full hospitality treatment with wonderful food and drink, and tours of the recently renovated High Line Car House, including insights on the historic 1870’s building they call home.

Golf Outing

Our 10th annual Golf Outing was held at the Golf Club of Dublin on Monday, July 24, 2023. We had beautiful weather and a fantastic turnout of over 100 golfers - family business and service provider members playing together to raise funds for the Conway Center. Golfers enjoyed a golf scramble with a contest and refreshments from Conway Center advisory board members and Golf Club residents Suzanne Amstutz and Jim Bishop. A grilled lunch followed by an afternoon buffet reception with raffles and prizes capped off a wonderful day. THANK YOU to all the players, sponsors, supporters, and volunteers!

A full list of upcoming social and networking events can be found on the Upcoming Events tab.
