The recently formed Tri-Lakes Young Professionals will host an interactive panel Oct. 21 that will give young professionals the opportunity to get advice from local industry leaders.
Local business owners will tell attendees about their own experience starting and running businesses in the Tri-Lakes area, then answer questions and engage in a discussion with the audience, sharing tips about what they would change if they were to go back and do it all over again.
The panelists are:

- Lake Placid Pub & Brewery - Chris & Catherine Ericson
- Hoffman Auto - Taylor Hoffman
- Origin Coffee - Jecinda Hughes
- Bear Essentials - Greg Moore
- State Farm Insurance - Mike Foote
