For 2010 we're hosting social and volunteer events every month. We're also starting a membership program and looking to do some nicer events, including a wine tasting, Royals tailgate party, and beer tastings.
Our March social event is a Beer Tasting at McCoy's! Thursday, March 25th at 6 pm we'll be out in Westport, continuing the Irish festivities at McCoy's Public House (4057 Pennsylvania) by having different brews available for you to sample. $10 gets you three tickets to try your choice of their own brews, but you'll want to check out their complete beer list and full menu. All proceeds from the tastings will benefit Habitat KC to go towards the HYP House and it will be a great chance to meet other young professionals who care about giving back to the community and working with this well known organization.
In April, we'll be out on a Habitat KC construction project on Saturday, April 3rd (note that this is Easter weekend) and our social event will be a social networking happy hour at Waldo Pizza on Thursday, April 15th. Celebrate Tax Day with us! For more information, or to sign up for the volunteer day (since space is limited) email HYP@habitatkc.org.
In May we're hosting Habitat KC Night at the K! Join us on Saturday, May 22nd for a tailgate party and Royals baseball game against the Colorado Rockies. Tailgate starts at 1:30 and the game starts at 3:10pm. Tickets are $20 and can be bought online or at any of our HYP events between now and then.

Habitat Young Professionals Kansas City is a group that engages young professionals (ages 21-40) in the work of Habitat Kansas City. We get together for networking and happy hours, have build days on the Habitat KC construction sites, and host other fun events! This is a group for people who are looking to get involved in their community, make the world better, have some fun and make new friends all at the same time.
Everyone is invited to attend our happy hours & volunteer days. If you choose to become a member, you'll receive discounts on event cover charges, a Habitat KC t-shirt, get preference for volunteer opportunities and get invited to members only events. Dues are $100 a year (lump sum) or $10 a month automatically charged to a credit card. Our goal is to eventually raise enough money to buid a "HYP House" with Habitat KC.
You can find HYP Kansas City on Facebook, so check it out, become a friend and post your pictures! We're also on LinkedIn and Twitter.
