Local Leaders Breakfast: Celebrating Young Leaders & Creative Entrepreneurship
Join us on December 9 for a special Local Leaders program as we recognize the 2026 recipients of Licking County's 20 under Forty - outstanding young professionals, ages 21 to 39, who exemplify excellence in their careers and commitment to community service. Each honoree will be introduced and celebrated for their professional achievements and civic engagement.
Following the recognition, we’ll hear from Mandy McGuire, owner of Cedar & Thread in Granville and McGuire Hobby Farm, alongside Chrissy Logesky, Founder of In Good Company and Mandy’s fractional Chief Marketing Officer. Together, they’ll share how creative marketing, social media, and authentic connections have helped grow Mandy’s businesses, build a loyal following, and turn her passion into entrepreneurial success.
Come be inspired, connect with fellow professionals, and celebrate those shaping the future of Licking County!
