March was 210′s busiest month ever…people still need support!
by JULIA

I am a little late  to post this, but I wanted to post it anyway! This is an indication that while things are certainly looking up, there are many out there who are still in need and still struggling. This is why it is so important that those of us that are lucky enough to have jobs need to step it up and do our part. Thank goodness we have an industry charity like 210 to help those of us in need. A big thank you and keep up the great wo…

by JULIA

Alison and me Why should you become a member of 210′s Young Professionals group??

Little Update from the Big Apple
by JULIA

  Can I just say … I love this city! I have only been here for a couple of weeks, but they have been jam packed and full of new discovery which I don’t expect will end…..maybe ever! It’s really exciting to know that I am right next door to all the action of the industry and I become overwhelmed with excitement to know that I  will be able to offer more and more insight into  what makes it tick……

FFANY RE-CAP
by Tara Bodt

Like a dumb dumb I forgot to take any pics of Tara and her crew even though I had my camera with me….so no visuals on this one, but I must say that I really enjoyed my time hanging out with Tara and her father Jonathan. Their line looked great and it seems that they had a good show. To no surprise Tara has an opinion on the shows for the month of February and also to no surprise, RW has opted for a FFANY/MAGIC combo. I think thi…

First YP Meeting – You need to read this!
by JULIA

Ross Evans, Peggy Kim Meill, Pamela McCarthy of Two Ten   Our first Young Professionals Group meeting for Two Ten seemed to be quite the success. There were more than 20 of us there to begin the initiatives to not only become the next faces of the charity but to raise awareness now. I was not quite sure what to expect as I was heading to the Deer Stags showroom, and since I still don’t know my way around the fabulous city of New Y…

by JULIA

So I hope all of you who were out in Vegas for WSA had a great time! I hear it was a little slow compared to even the one in February.

I personally am sad that I didn’t make it out there and I hear that the Zappos party was really really fun! Oh well….there is always ne…
