This event gives current members a chance to share with others what the organization is all about.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Saipan Chamber of Commerce administrator and coordinator Mercilynn Kaneshi Palec, the event is different from the previous quarters because outsiders were now charged an entrance fee of $10 and SYP members were charged $8. <\/p>\n<p>According to Palec, the event was also an opportunity for SYP to earn funds. <\/p>\n<p>The organization has future plans to start a mentoring program with middle schools and high schools all over the Commonwealth. <\/p>\n<p>The mixer also gives companies a chance to explain what their business is about. So far, companies like Pacifica Insurance Underwriters, Inc. and Paradise Dental Clinic have taken their turns in hosting this quarterly mixer.  <\/p>\n<p>SYP is a committee under the Chamber. <\/p>\n<p>According to Palec, being a part of this committee gives members direct access to the Chamber\u2019s resources and insights of Chamber members. <\/p>\n<p>Members of SYP are given direct information from the Chamber that they can use for their benefit. <\/p>\n<p>For those who are interested in becoming SYP members, applications are still being accepted. You may apply to become a committee member if you are 18 years of age or older. There is a $35 annual membership fee. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Saipan Young Professionals had its second quarter mixer hosted by IT&amp;E last Saturday night&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[11841,10318,7911,3853],"class_list":["post-254608","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-local-news","tag-mercilynn-kaneshi-palec","tag-paradise-dental-clinic","tag-saipan-chamber","tag-syp"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254608","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=254608"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254608\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=254608"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=254608"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=254608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
