Hi, There!
I have a fun opportunity for all of you Charlotte locals! First, let me tell you a little bit about the organization. Being new to Charlotte, I’m always trying to find local events, festivals, restaurants and so on. I have found a lot of websites that help, but most are written by the older community or provided by sponsored advertisers. I wanted to create a website run by and for the young adults of Charlotte! It will be a lot like an online magazine full of young journalists. The contributing writers will be able to write about their lifestyles in Charlotte, places to eat, funny things that have happened, upcoming events and other happenings; the categories are endless! You do not have to be a professional writer, an English major, or grammar perfectionist to be a contributing writer. That is what sets us apart.
This is an unlimited opportunity to include in resumes for future positions. Being a contributor for Young in Charlotte will open a lot of doors. It’ll be great for growing your audience and your social media presence. Young in Charlotte will be organizing monthly events. The contributors will have the opportunity to help organize, promote, and get involved in all events. Contributors are not expected to do anything more than just write; we just want to make it fun and build your experiences in the process! We are always open for ideas and want you to get involved in making Young In Charlotte the best it can be!
Think that you’d be a great fit for Young In Charlotte? Please send me an email at youngincharlotte@gmail.com. Tell me a little bit about yourself, your favorite thing to do in the Charlotte area, and why you would be a great fit for Young in Charlotte!
Thanks,
Taralynn McNitt

This is such a great idea!!! My husband and I are NC natives and relocating back to Tarheel state but this time we will be living in Charlotte. We have never been to Charlotte so I have been trying to find a site like this! GREAT IDEA!

You could check out the Wichita, KS website that’s similar to what it sounds like you are wanting to do at http://www.ypwichita.org

I have to say, I have been reading your blog for nearly two years now. I actually can’t think of any other blog out there that I’ve read more than once. You are without a doubt THE BEST! You are truly an inspiration and this idea is brilliant. Also Charlotte has become my top pick for city I want to see next thanks to all your lovely posts. Keep up the good work!

Man! I wish I lived in Charlotte. I have lived in North Carolina all my life but never Charlotte. I graduated college a year ago as an English Major. Is there any other way I could contribute? I would love helping so much!

Hi,
Do you know about “Yelp” ? It’s a website (available on smartphone) with a lot of events, adresses, and things you can do in a City. I subscribe for my town in France and it’s very helpfull. You can create it for Charlotte, i think it is possible.
Good luck et bises de France

Hello! I was just curious if you’re going through emails or anything like that. I sent in my “application” for this and was curious about the process.
Thanks!!
