Exciting & Timely Events

Events in red, such as with Cornell University speakers, are open to all, however many CCSM events are open only to members and their guests. If you are not yet a member, join us for only $30/member & $40/couple! Members must log in to register for member-only events.

The events open for registration will have a blue "Register" button (members need to login to register for member only events). Replays of many of our previous events are in the members only past events page.

Once registered, you will receive an automated confirmation, you will no longer get email invites to that event, and you will receive two automated reminders.

Questions with your reservation? CCSM.resv@gmail.com or leave a voicemail at (941) 500-3032. Additional club contacts here. Members, need help with registrations? Click here.

    Join the Ivy League Professionals Networking Group of Sarasota for our April Happy Hour. We are an informal, volunteer-led group of Ivy Leaguers Undergrad 1985+ alumni who would like to connect with other alumni in the area. The group has been building momentum as the year progresses, with lots of new alumni attending our events. It's amazing how many Ivy League graduates are choosing Sarasota as their permanent home!

    This month's event location is Block 15 Cork and Craft in downtown Sarasota. 

    The Happy Hour will be on Thursday, April 25th, starting at 5pm. It officially ends at 7pm, but guests usually stay longer. We will have a space set aside for us and a check-in table to guide you. Parking is available on the street or in the nearby State Street parking garage. There is no cost to attend. Drinks and food will be available for purchase, as well as some complementary offerings from the venue.

    Attendance for this event is open to alumni of Ivy League schools who are still active in the workforce and interested in professional networking. These events provide a great opportunity to socialize with other local Ivy League professionals in an informal setting. In the past, these events have generated many new social and business connections. Feel free to come when convenient for you and look for our group.   

    Please use the link below to indicate if you are planning to attend. This isn't required, but helps us anticipate attendance for the venue staff. 

    Feel free to join the Facebook Group for other updates, photos from events and announcements of future gatherings. to register: https://www.memberplanet.com/events/theivyleagueclub/ivyleagueprofessionalsapril25thhappyhour
