ULSTLYP Family,
Quick question: Have you ever paid for a gym membership and then realized you haven’t actually been to the gym?
You keep telling yourself, “I’m going next week.” Meanwhile, that membership is just sitting there waiting on you.
Well… your ULSTLYP membership works a little like that.
You joined for a reason. Maybe it was to expand your network. Maybe you wanted to serve the community, grow professionally, meet other young professionals, develop your leadership skills—or simply find some good people doing meaningful things in St. Louis.
Whatever brought you here, we want to help you actually USE your membership.
That’s why our next General Body Meeting is going to be a little different.
And before you ask—NO, this will not be 90 minutes of Robert’s Rules of Order.
We’re also not going to spend the morning having leaders read status reports to you that could have been posted in GroupMe or emailed.
This meeting is about YOU.
ULSTLYP GENERAL BODY MEETING
Saturday, September 19, 2026
⏰ 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis Headquarters
1408 N. Kingshighway Blvd.
St. Louis, MO 63113
This isn’t your typical GBM. Come ready to CONNECT. REENGAGE. NETWORK. FIND YOUR LANE.
It’s about reengaging, reconnecting, networking, and finding your lane in the movement.
We’re creating an interactive meeting where you’ll have opportunities to:
-
Meet and connect with other young professionals
-
Learn what’s happening during the remainder of 2026
-
Discover upcoming networking, service and professional-development opportunities
-
Find projects where your skills and interests can make an impact
-
Share what YOU want to see from ULSTLYP
-
Meet people who might become friends, collaborators, mentors, clients—or your next opportunity
Most importantly, you don’t have to become an officer or chair a committee to be involved.
Maybe your lane is volunteering at an event.
Maybe it’s helping with marketing.
Maybe it’s professional development.
Maybe it’s community service.
Maybe you have an idea we haven’t even thought about yet.
Or maybe your first step is simply showing up and meeting some people.
All of those count.
Come Back to the Movement
If we haven’t seen you in a while, this is the meeting to come back.
If you’re a new member, this is the meeting to get connected.
If you’ve been attending consistently, bring another young professional with you.
And if your ULSTLYP membership has been sitting there looking suspiciously like that unused gym membership…
We’re not judging. We just want to see you.
Come ready to meet people, laugh a little, exchange some contact information, discover what’s next, and find your place in the movement.
SHOW UP. STEP UP. BRING SOMEBODY.
Because ULSTLYP becomes stronger when our members aren't simply on the membership list—they're in the room.
One Team. One Dream. One Movement.
See you at the GBM!
