Barnstable, MA – Cape Cod Young Professionals, Inc. (CCYP), a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that works to connect, engage, and advance Cape Cod’s young workforce and future leaders, will host the 13th Annual Back to Business Bash on Thursday, September 19 at the Barnstable Airport from 5:30 – 8:30 PM.

The Back to Business Bash is one of the most anticipated events on Cape Cod, attracting nearly 1,000 attendees each year. The Bash is an extraordinary opportunity to connect with fellow community members and colleagues while enjoying the best that Cape Cod has to offer in live music, food, drink, and fun. Event attendees will sample food and beverages from more than 20 local vendors and visit approximately 30 exhibitor booths with games, giveaways, and prizes. For 2019, CCYP is excited to welcome NEW food and beverage vendors, including Cleat & Anchor, Anejo Mexican Bistro, Mom & Pops Burgers, and a selection of up-and-coming breweries from across the Cape.
The Bash Bubbly & Wine Pull Fundraiser will return to this year’s event, with proceeds supporting CCYP’s annual Career Connect Scholarship, a fund of The Cape Cod Foundation. The Career Connect Scholarship provides a boost to local workers in any industry who are seeking to sustain their lives and careers on Cape Cod year-round through higher education, certification, or credentialing programs. CCYP has set a fundraising goal for the Wine Pull of $2,500, all of which will directly benefit the scholarship fund. Wine Pull tickets are $20 each, redeemable on the night of the Bash. To participate, attendees will exchange their ticket for a numbered cork and take home the bottle with the corresponding number. All bottles are valued at $20 or greater, with a number of high-value bottles available.
