Drink Learning & Tasting Social Night **************Update on Oct 10th***************So far, 64 registrations. Open to public with FREE ACCESS after 9pm
***************Update on Oct 8th***************
* Party postponed to next Saturday (10/11/2008)!!! * Two more non-alcohol punches will be added * Totally 4 non-alcohol punches and 6 cocktails * Bartender-instructed learning and free tasting, dinner included, live band, dance singing show, Karaoke and more… >>>Click Here for Registration>>> Registration Deadline: 8pm, Oct 9th (Thursday)
Sincerely thank you for the registration to the party. Up to 3pm, Oct 3rd, there were 40 registrations. However, the value of this event, which is always our philosophy, is to not only have some entertainment, but expand your network as much as possible as well. Therefore, after discussion and even some debate among our board, we decide to put off this event to next Saturday, Oct 11th. It's a hard decision to make. Though we already paid some fine for the time change, we really want to provide you both a high-quality event and satisfying networking opportunities, rather than throw the party no matter how in an irresponsible way. We apologize if this change causes you any inconvenience. If any conflict with your schedule next week, you can get full refund by simply emailing us. After some survey, we found two reasons accounting for the limited registrations. First, we focused on "Cocktail", but many people prefer non-alcohol drinks. Second, people have schedule conflict due to national day activities. Therefore, two suggestions are as following: 1. To attract non-alcohol drinkers, two more non-alcohol drinks will be added into the menu, totally 4 non-alcohol punches and 6 cocktails, and title of the event will be changed to "Drink Learning & Tasting Social Night". 2. Please do a little "networking" with your friends. Encourage them to join this event. Everyone can benefit a lot by such contribution. We strongly believe that, with your understanding and contribution, this event will be very successful in terms of benefiting everyone in network expansion.

There might be some change on the rafting event this Saturday. CCCC just contacted the rafting site for reservation. We've been told that water level is just 2 feet over there at this moment. Although it storms this Friday(zip 61348), whether or not the site is open this Saturday won't be determined until Friday noon, depending on the precipitation. Therefore, in case of unavailability of rafting, we have a backup plan, Reed's Canoe Trip. Some CCCC members have explored the trip recently, having a lot of fun. You will be informed whether we go rafting or canoe this Friday noon. YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO BACK OUT BY EMAILING US AT CULTURECAREERCLUBCHICAGO@GMAIL.COM BEFORE 12:00AM FRIDAY TO AVOID THE RISK AND GET FULL REFUND!

CCC Chicago and NYC meetingNews Link: http://www.suncastv.com/channels/stv_chicoCantoNews.html
Time: 07/04/2008 美国国庆期间，北美文化职业俱乐部纽约总部代表团一行5人到达芝加哥参观访问。 7月4日在华埠重庆楼，新近成立的北美文化职业俱乐部芝加哥的成员设宴款待来自纽约的客人。晚饭后，两地的俱乐部主要成员举行了会谈，议题包括，如何加强结构的模式化和可移植性从而高效率地在北美和中国各大城市扩展俱乐部的规模，如何整合两地的内部信息和资源从而打造一个俱乐部广大成员互助互利的网络平台，以及俱乐部短期和长期的目标。 俱乐部主席胡煜和芝加哥负责人李翊向记者表示，首先，文化职业俱乐部有别于其他社团组织的最大特点在于其网络性，为了简洁有效在中美各大城市扩展，俱乐部结构的模式化和可移植性是关键，现阶段的任务是以纽约总部的俱乐部网站和结构为模板，在芝加哥尝试建立类似架构，取得成效后再其规范化。 其次，作为一个非盈利性组织，这个俱乐部的首要任务是用IT技术打造一个网络平台，使其广大成员能够方便有效的互助互利，在这个网络中，成员们可以获得由其他成员提供的公司内部职位推荐，可以获得当地及俱乐部其他分部所在地职业和文化方面的信息资源，可以通过互相推荐和内部聚会交流的形式找到生活中的朋友和职业上的伙伴。同时，为了鼓励大家树立这种“人人为我，我为人人”的观念，这个俱乐部将在今后尝试采用积分制度。其负责人表示，只有这样，职业白领们才会从中真正获利而且做出贡献。 最后，文化职业俱乐部的年内目标包括，完成俱乐部模板化的建设，年底在香港将采用这个模板快速建立起一个分部，同时要完成几个成员通过内部网络推荐找到工作的成功案例。“从长期来看，在五年以内，我们有信心将俱乐部的分部扩展到八到十个中美大城市，平均每地的俱乐部成员达到两百人以上。”来自着名投资银行高盛的俱乐部主席胡煜自信满满地表示，“大家有时间可以去我们的网 www.cccnetworks.org 看看，希望每一个对我们想法表示认同的年轻人都加入进来，快乐快速地扩展我们的人际网络，积极有效地发展我们的事业。”
