Get Schmoozing Again for the United Way

MERRILLVILLE, IN (July 14, 2011) – Join over 500 of Northwest Indiana's leading business professionals for the Who's Who Big Schmooze, Thursday, September 15 at 5:00 p.m. at the Avalon Manor in Merrillville, Ind. This event recognizes the Who's Who as featured in Building Indiana News magazine, as well as is the annual kick-off event for the United Ways Serving Lake and Porter Counties.

The Big Schmooze provides the premier evening for networking, mingling, and overall schmoozing in Northwest Indiana. There will be no stuffy, sit-down dinner, instead gourmet dinner stations, signature cocktails, entertainment and a very brief program. Proceeds from the event will benefit the United Ways Serving Lake and Porter Counties and the more than 70 charities they support. Every one of us is touched by a United Way agency and knows a family member, neighbor or co-worker who utilizes one of their programs.

Tickets and various levels of sponsorships are available now and will sell out. Tickets are $85 for a single, and corporate packages include 5 for $400 or 10 for $750. For more information and to register, visit thebigschmooze.com or call (219) 226-0300.
