CARW Member Meet-up: Connect Casually with CARW
CARW is continuing its Member Meet-Up series—informal gatherings designed to foster authentic connections within our community. These casual get-togethers, hosted by members, for members, are a great way to engage with fellow professionals over lunch, dinner, or even a quick coffee. It’s a low-key, high-value way to build relationships, exchange ideas, and stay connected within the CARW network.

How It Works
Each meet-up will be thoughtfully executed by a volunteer leader, selecting fun and vibrant locations. Whether you’re looking to strengthen professional relationships or simply enjoy great food and company, CARW Member Meet-up offers a fresh way to engage with fellow CARW members.
