Professional Ladies Association (PLA!) Boston is pleased to announce their exciting Fall networking event series, including our most-anticipated event of the year, the annual PLA! for Ellie Brunch.
For the past decade, this signature event has proudly supported our charity partner, the Ellie Fund, whose mission is to provide critical support services that ease the everyday stresses of breast cancer patients so they can focus on what matters most: healing.
This year’s milestone celebration will once again feature the inspiring Candy O’Terry as host, setting the stage for a truly unforgettable morning of networking, fundraising, and empowerment—all in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to bring together so many incredible, accomplished women throughout the A/E/C industry and to host events that create space for networking, mentorship, friendship, meaningful conversations, and philanthropy. Kris and I are so proud of the community that’s taken shape. What began as a small circle has blossomed into something bigger than we could have imagined—welcoming new members, creating new traditions, and bringing back familiar faces and favorite events year after year. Reaching our 10th Annual PLA! for Ellie Brunch feels both surreal and deeply rewarding, and we can’t wait to celebrate this milestone together,” says Co-Founder Maureen Rystrom, Partner/Vice President of Marketing at J. Calnan & Associates.
In addition to PLA!’s hallmark events; Sip & Swing golf clinics throughout the summer at Granite Links Golf Course and the end-of-summer Soiree, hosted earlier this year at the Seaport’s chic new Moxies, PLA!-ers have some new events to enjoy. Pickle Me Pink, a pickleball event hosted at Harpoon Social Club has quickly become a fan favorite, as has the addition of Tarot & Treats to the annual calendar, a spiritual evening sponsored by Contract Sources coming up at the end of October.
PLA! Boston, co-founded in 2011 by J. Calnan & Associates’ Partner and VP of Marketing, Maureen Rystrom and Business Development expert Kristina Esposito, has a reputation throughout the A/E/C industry for connecting women through networking, mentorship and philanthropy.
