Program Description

Description

The Ridgefield ECDC (Economic & Community Development Commission) and the Ridgefield Library invite you to the Golf Performance Center  for their second networking event “Ridgefield Connect.” This networking series for working professionals centers around an engaging speaker or business, rotates around town, and is organized three times each year. The inaugural event in May at Nod Hill Brewery was filled to capacity.

Ridgefield Connect is geared to remote workers and entrepreneurs, but all working professionals are welcome. The event offers the opportunity to get out of the house and meet peers and colleagues while listening to an interesting speaker about topics that may not be mainstream or what you would hear in corporate settings.

GPC Founder & CEO Roger Knick, Head Golf Pro Dennis Hillman and Director of Operations Ed Murphy will share GPC’s origin story, and how the GPC business model has evolved and grown over the years – including increased accessibility to the public. 

When:  530 – 7:30pm on Wednesday September 10

Where: Golf Performance Center at 824 Ethan Alley Hwy (Rte. 7) in Ridgefield.

  • 5:30 – 6:00pm:  networking
  • 6:00 -- 6:30pm:  Intro by ECDC, GPC discussion, and Q&A
  • 6:30 – 7:30pm:  Networking
  • 7:30 – 9:00pm:  Guests wishing to play the “National” (GPC’s mini 9-hole course) may do so at this time. Holes range from 30-95 yards; playing time is about 45 minutes. Bring a couple of wedges and a putter; GPC rents clubs if needed. 

Cost:  Free. The ECDC is covering the cost of all beverages and light bites, making this an excellent opportunity to network and learn.
