Join us for the final Spark of 2026! This TED Talk-style event features three local speakers.

​Melissa Spurgeon - Be All In: The Power of Investing in Where You Live
Strong communities don’t happen by accident. They are built by people who choose to be all in—serving, giving, supporting local businesses, showing up for their neighbors, and believing their community is worth investing in. This talk explores what can happen when we stop simply living somewhere and start taking ownership in its future.

​Carol Rothstein - The Zingers Principle: How Small Actions Generate Big Outcomes
What can a snack cake teach us about leadership? The smallest actions often create the biggest outcomes. Discover how everyday moments of recognition, connection, and thoughtfulness build trust, strengthen commitment, and elevate employee performance, ultimately driving organizational success.

​Phillis Rambsy - Learning to Swim Taught Me to Succeed in Business and in Life
Learning to swim as an adult provided much more than instructions on how to navigate and stay safe in water.  The techniques from swimming lessons also provided foundations to succeed in business and to live a successful life.

​Spark is a quarterly networking and learning event hosted by theCO and sponsored by Prestige Consulting Group. Registration is $10 and includes lunch.
