In celebration of its eighth anniversary, EPIC Toledo will host “EPIC’s Emerald Birthday Bash” from 7-11 p.m. March 13 at The Blarney Event Center and a tent set up outside that venue on Huron Street.

The EPIC event will feature networking, entertainment and fun as the organization celebrates another year of engaging people and inspiring change, as its name suggests. Attendees can sip on a signature drink, the Irish Mule, dance to sounds of local band Last Call Heroes and enjoy food from local restaurants. A cash bar will be available.

Sara Swisher, EPIC Toledo director, said the event is a celebration of the organization’s relevance for the area’s young business community.

“It says that we are an organization that is continuously evolving in order to meet the needs of today’s young professionals and tomorrow’s community and business leaders,” she said.

Tickets are $10 and include a complimentary beverage.  Cash payment will be taken at the door or attendees may register at www.epictoledo.com. EPIC’s Emerald Birthday Bash is open to members, young professionals, the business community and anyone 21 years of age or older who believes in EPIC’s mission of connecting emerging leaders to each other and the community.

EPIC Toledo was started by the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce to develop future business and community leaders, to provide emerging leaders with a voice regarding the future of the region, and to attract and retain diverse young talent to our region. EPIC Toledo has more than 1,500 individual members and 64 corporate members.

Other upcoming EPIC Toledo events include the Leadership Golf Outing on May 29 and the T-Town Dash on June 18.
