Editorial

Dear Readers, Amidst thousands of magazines competing for the attention of readers who are less and less inclined to read, we wanted to create a publication that would be useful, entertaining and personal to our readers--something they would actually read. Soon, we realized young professionals in the Fox Valley wanted something to inform them about what the area has to offer. Too often people complain that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing to do in the Fox Valley and then turn to bars for their entertainment. We want to give young professionals a comprehensive guide to music, arts, sports, recreation, dining and events in the Fox Valley. We also noticed that many young professionals want to move out of the area because they feel there are not enough career options here. In addition to informing young professionals about the various job opportunities in the Fox Valley, we want to provide intriguing content relevant to peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first years in the workforce such as social media, entrepreneurship and networking. For the debut issue, we wanted to feature how young professionals spend their Thanksgiving, particularly when they have had to move for their job and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be with their families. Thus, we have created the modern guide to Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

The Editorial Team

The mission of Nine Two Zero Magazine is to inspire young professionals to connect with the modern lifestyle of the Fox Cities. Through fresh and dynamic content, the magazine encourages readers to engage with the community and provides insight on events, trends and opportunities.

You have to be willing to continue to grow as a person because it will stretch you beyond anything you have experienced before.” Through Vanevenhoven’s hard work, she has built Recharge from a place where people would just get a smoothie or a consultation and leave to a community of multiple coaches and more than 1,700 connected club members. “There’s only so much of me to go around, so that’s when I really wrapped my head around the concept of the community can help people, so it was more of a catalyst for something that could reach out,” Vanevenhoven said. “I think my brain has really solidified on that concept in the last year, which is totally different from my vision when I started, but I think it’s much bigger.” Not only is Recharge unique to Oshkosh because it is one of the few places to get a healthy meal, but also it is a place for people to achieve their health goals with a sense of belonging and without being judged.

“We are about accepting people where they are, encouraging them to get to where they want to be,” Vanevenhoven said. “You look at us, and we’re just a mismatch, a little bit of everything.

to have more time to mentor other coaches and clients so that they can be successful on their own. “My favorite part is seeing people whether it is in their health or in their business have moments where they don’t need me as much anymore,” Vanevenhoven said. “Something clicks. At that point you’ve empowered them.”

Kat's Best Advice for Young Professionals: 1. Get organized Get organized right away because you won’t have the need to organize, but one day you’ll be like, “This is awful.”

2. Set a clear schedule

It was very easy to get stuck super unmotivated. No one is there to hold you accountable. I heard someone say at training, “If you were your boss, would you have fired yourself today?”

3. Educate yourself

If you need to take a couple classes to learn something without getting a degree [do it]. People don’t even realize that is an option sometimes.

4. Talk to successful business owners

Ask for of advice from a lot of different people. Ask a lot of qualified people, people you would be willing to trade financial situations with.

5. Know your audience

Make sure you do a ton of research in advance. Do your market research.

Social Media Manners By: Danny Kobin

uture employers and recruiters now have the ability of discovering exactly who you are by just doing a quick search online. You can thank social media for this. It’s time to do a personal audit and make sure you actually look like a young professional.

Privacy settings:

If you don’t want a future employer seeing your rant about your bad experience at a fast food restaurant, including five different swear words and a couple made-up phrases, then do yourself a favor and make all of your profiles private.

Personal/private profiles:

It’s the 21st century, so almost virtually every future employer will be doing an online background check. Time to either clean up your act (too harsh—or funny?) on social media or change your privacy settings. One suggestion for Twitter, which seems to be the hot spot for job-ruining rants, is to have a private account for personal ramblings and a public account for your “professional” self. It’s never too soon to start building your personal brand online.

Don’t post any inappropriate photos:

Trust us, nobody wants to see you nine beers deep trying to sing karaoke to Def Leppard’s “Pour Some Sugar on Me.” Take a walk through memory lane and go back and delete any iinappropriate images. A photo truly is worth a thousand words, and you can bet that recruiters will be looking through some of yours. You don’t need to be paranoid about every single picture, but just make sure there aren’t any that put you in a bad light.

Best New Apps Snowball:

Keep conversations professional:

Snowball prioritizes your smartphone notifications, learns your habits and makes smart predictions over time and also lets you respond within the app to multiple social media channels. Snowball is built for Android devices and is available for free at the Google Play Store.

Use proper grammar:

Whether you’re working directly in marketing or not, Google Primer is a helpful guide full of marketing tips and lessons. The app is perfect for any small business owners, entrepreneurs or young professionals. The app is available for free for both Android and Apple devices.

If you are using social media platforms to communicate with any employers, co-workers, supervisors, etc., then you need to be just as courteous and professional as you would when talking face-to-face. You may also have messaging apps for co-workers and team members. While this might not exactly be social media, you need to remain professional in any conversations even outside of office hours. Nothing makes us cringe more than seeing a “your” vs. “you’re” mistake. Brush up on your grammar before posting more updates online. Just like a business email or letter, you should proofread anything before posting.

Don’t friend request someone if you don’t know them:

You only should really be adding people whom you know on social media. However, Twitter is somewhat of an exception. With more personal platforms such as Facebook and LinkedIn, it’s best if you only add friends and acquaintances. If you think someone might not remember meeting you, just add a quick message about when or where you met. Building up a solid group of connections and networking on LinkedIn can become helpful when looking for a new job.

A Modern Guide to

Happy Friendsgiving By: Chelsea Gawlik

urkey, stuffing, screaming family and the Thanksgiving Day football game. For many of people, these characterize the family Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, for some young adults, they may need to skip a year of celebrating with the family. Whether the issue is money, the boss asking someone to work over the holiday, or just lack of opportunity to go home, the idea of missing Thanksgiving is frustrating for many. Sometimes Friendsgiving is a better fit for a young professional lifestyle. As young professionals in a busy world, we all know how to find the best in a less than ideal situation. Just because Thanksgiving can’t be spent with the family, doesn’t mean it can’t still be a holiday to remember.

History This new tradition most likely gained popularity from everyone’s favorite gang in 1994 during season one, episode nine of FRIENDS. In “The One Where the Underdog Gets Away” Monica, Chandler, Joey, Phoebe, Rachel and Ross kick start their favorite holiday tradition, and ours. Due to the fact that millennials are the most likely age group to participate in the newly formed holiday, there is no direct relationship between FRIENDS and what we know today as “Friendsgiving”. It still doesn’t change the fact that they did a pretty great job hosting their own Friendsgiving every year until 2004. The Friendsgiving tradition is most popular in the college and young professional demographic because many people within these two divisions are less likely to have the ability to go home. Many of them are away from home for the first time. Traditions like these usually start as a way to make the best of the situation, but for many it becomes a tradition. Every year, they get together and celebrate the holidays. Friendsgiving brings family Thanksgiving traditions together to start new traditions. Sometimes people find out that their friends are their closest family.

What are You Going to Bring? No one thought they would spend their Thanksgiving in that tiny apartment. Joey’s family kicked him out because they thought he had venereal disease, Rachel missed her flight to Vail and Chandler hated everything Thanksgiving. Once everyone realized they would be together for the holiday, they all wanted a touch of home in the meal. There are no two family thanksgivings that are exactly the same. Turkey is the “norm” but hey, maybe some families eat duck at Thanksgiving, or a vegetarian family may serve a variety of meatless dishes for the holiday. Just like every family Thanksgiving is different, every Friendsgiving is different. Each person is going to bring a different dish, and the more friends that come, the more difference among tastes it will have! Everyone has their favorite dish from family thanksgiving. If you’re not sure what to bring, use this guide to find out which FRIEND you are in your gang, and figure out what you should bring to this year’s Friendsgiving.

Friendsgiving Trend

riendsgiving is an ever-growing trend that allows people to enjoy the comfort of a family Thanksgiving, even when that is currently not possible. Friendsgiving provides a chance to start new traditions while thinking about the old. Jared Schultz, a recent UW Oshkosh graduate, has spent the last two Thanksgivings with friends instead of family. “Since my family lives a little farther away, it is just harder to see my family

and my girlfriend’s family for the holidays, especially when I might have to work the day after,” Schultz said. Schultz said Friendsgiving is a fun way to see everyone that he may not get to see regularly because of the stress of everyday life. “I don’t get to see some of my group regularly,” Schultz said. “When I see them for Thanksgiving, it’s our way of saying ‘Yes, we’re making time for this.’” Schultz does not see his Friendsgiving

tradition sticking, but for now it is a good alternative. “I would love to be able to go see my family for the holiday, and maybe after I’ve been at work for a few years, and settle in to the job, I will be able to do that,” Schultz said. “For now, it’s an excuse to see my friends and still get a delicious home cooked meal for the holiday.”

Stop, Drop and Shop In 2010, American Express launched Small Business Saturday, which takes place the day after Black Friday. It has rapidly expanded since then with small businesses everywhere promoting special sales on this day to encourage shoppers to spend some of their hard-earned dollars at local businesses and not big box retailers.

Here are some small businesses in downtown Appleton (right) and Oshkosh (abvove) area that are participating.

Retail Horror stories

At 5:30 on Thanksgiving evening, most people are getting ready to sit down at the table and devour their dinner, but I was currently making an hour-and-ahalf drive from Kenosha to Oshkosh—in the snow. I was able to devour my turkey and mash potatoes too, but at noon that day. I was on my way to open the store at the Oshkosh Outlet mall at 7 p.m. on Thanksgiving all so that people could get their pantyhose half off. Normally, Thanksgiving is a huge celebration for my family including the annual football game we played at the local park, a card game or two and an overabundance of food. I originally thought I wasn’t going to be able to attend Thanksgiving, but my aunt decided to bump Thanksgiving “dinner” to the afternoon just so I could attend. Having to miss out on one of the three times a year I get to see my extended family was agonizing, but knowing I had to work until 4 in the morning was even worse.

It’s 3 a.m., and I’m walking into my first Black Friday as a retail worker. From the week’s training and meetings we’ve had about the chaos that would ensue, the actuality was 100 times worse. I was assigned to work as a cashier for my ninehour shift, which was better than working the sales floor, and interacting with customers. At least all I had to do was scan and bag. However, that was a horror story all in itself. I had a lady approach the counter, ready to check out with at least three bags full of all different products, from the store- lotions, perfumes, candles, soaps and more. She was so excited that the store’s Black Friday sale included a “buy three, get three free deal”, and as she came closer to the counter, she smiled, a handful of coupons. Her smile faded and turned into a straight line when I told her she could only use certain coupons today. At that point, she started shouting at me, confused about why her items aren’t “free.” I tried explaining again how the items are prorated, but she gave up and walked away, leaving at least 20 items on the counter.

Food and Drink

Appetite for Organic By: Jenna Nyberg

The Fox Valley has a growing appetite for organic, locally grown food. In the past few years, we have seen increases in farm-to-table restaurants, farmers markets and organic options at local grocery stores—but our stomachs are still hungry for more. Customer demand has been fueling the rise of local and organic food in the Fox Valley, as we crave straight-fromthe-farm products over any prewrapped options that were shipped from some farm a few hundred miles across the country. Kimberly Felch, an employee at Village Market in Fond du Lac and an avid organic eater, said that the recent surge of people interested in buying local and organic food is likely due to people becoming more educated about the food industry and what alternatives are available right in their own backyards. “As more people become educated, even in small ways, about our current food options, they come to realize that our overly processed food system has not been working to keep people healthy,” Felch said. “They also realize that our communities need to find a link to keep us working together to make each community unique. Local food provides such a link. Organic

food agrees with much of what we are learning about keeping our bodies and planet healthy.” According to a 2015 Organic Agriculture in Wisconsin Status Report, Wisconsin has 1,180 organic farms, second only to California. Wisconsin ranks first in the nation for the number of organic dairy and beef farms and is in the top five for organic vegetables, melons, grain and oilseeds. With a 77 percent-statewide growth in organic farms since 2005, Kris Stedl, owner of The Veggie Shed in Neenah, said she is delighted to see an increase in the amount of organic food being provided to consumers in the Fox Valley, especially via local farmers markets. According to foxvalleyfoodie.com, there were a total of 13 farmers markets taking place throughout each week during the 2015 summer season. Some cities added extra farmers markets to their weekly schedules based on high demand. This high demand for fresh, local food has been met not only with more options and more food, but also with more farms popping up in and around the Fox Valley. Felch said this increase in the amount of organic farms in the area allows the Village Market to keep its food “as local as possible.” “Certainly the demand for [organic food] has risen even in the last couple

“This trend I believe will only get stronger”

years, but more so we have had more options to choose from,” Felch said. “This trend I believe will only get stronger as more people become educated, make requests and are heard by food producers near and far.” But how easy is it to actually jump on board with this trend and maintain a diet based on local and organic food, especially with the approaching winter months when farmers markets move inside and many foods are no longer in season? Moreover, with your checkbook in mind, why should you even consider forking over the few extra bucks every time you fill your fridge?

Why buy organic?

“Much of our soil has lost nutritional content through conventional farming practices; organic farming strives to regain the health of the soil as it fosters continual replenishment of nutrients.”

Can I afford organic food?

Where can I get it?

“Our health, we take with us to our death. The planet’s health is what we leave behind. In both cases, for me, it is worth the additional dollars and work that it takes to maintain so that I may feel content in my later years that I tried my best.”

What's Brewing With came the pumpkin spice latte. But what happens when you want to try something new to cozy up to on those brisk autumn days and you can’t think of anything besides the pumpkin spice latte? Here are some other options based on favorites of the Fox Valley, whether it’s for your morning wake up or happy hour. By Kaitlyn Murray

Vanilla Cream Ale: Hops and

vanilla come together in this medium bodied beer made at the Fox River Brewing Company. The semi-sweet and tart vanilla beer is best enjoyed after dinner. “It’s one of my favorite six-packs to buy at Fratello’s and have around the house,” said Brandon Loos, 30, from Oshkosh.

Glacier Fumé: This white wine is made at the Parallel 44 Winery in Green Bay. “I love going to the winery and trying the new wines at Parallel 44. The Glacier Fumé is my favorite white wine of theirs, it’s not too sweet or too bitter,” Valerie Brest said, 35, from Appleton.

Hard Cider Sangria: Two flavors come to mind when thinking about autumn: pumpkin and apple. Mixing up a batch of sangria for dinner parties is a classy way to refresh guests. “I made a batch of cider sangria for a party, and my friends loved it. They kept asking me for the recipe, which I got from Clinton Kelly on The Chew,” Amanda Nienhaus said, 24, from Oshkosh. StoneWall: Ginger beers and hard ciders have become more popular in recent years when buying craft brews became the thing to do across the U.S. A stonewall mixes these two drinks together and adds rum to make a great drink to enjoy with dinner or a night out with friends.

Toasted Graham Latte: Starbuck’s revealed a new drink for this year, adding to it’s list of specialty autumn drinks. Following the new summer flavor of s’mores, the Toasted Graham Latte continues the graham cracker trend. While the pumpkin spice latte remains a fan favorite at Starbucks, this new drink is a refreshing choice. November

Plan for The Turkey Trot November: By: Jay Spanbauer

ecoming more of your familiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Thanksgiving traditions, Festival Foodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 8th Annual Turkey Trot returns this year to many communities of the Fox Valley, providing an opportunity to star your day of food, family and football with some fun and fitness for a great cause. The Turkey Trot offers the community an opportunity to participate in a run or walk for charity. Proceeds of the event will benefit the Boys & Girls Club as well as the YMCA in the communities where the runs take place. Entries for the race are open until Nov. 22 at a cost of $25 for adults and $20 for children under 18. Adult participants

can also register for $30 and children under 18 for $25, on race day. In eight years, the Turkey Trot has donated nearly $1.3 million. Turkey Trot runs will take place in Appleton, Eau Claire, Fond du Lac, Green Bay, La Crosse, Manitowoc, Marshfield and Oshkosh. Those looking to join, but not wanting to run can take part in a 2mile walk. You can also bring your four-legged friend to take part in the 2-mile Dog Jog. Participants will enjoy music and free goods, including a longsleeve shirt and free pumpkin pie from Festival Foods, at the finish line. The festivities begin 8 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 26

By Erik Buchinger With bow hunting season here and gun season coming up in mid-November, friends and families are in the midst of planning their annual hunting trips. Recently, it has been found that women are participating in hunting more now than ever before. Carly Vander Velden, 20, of Hortonville has been hunting for six years, and she has noticed the increased popularity of women hunting in recent years. Vander Velden said she generally stays in the Fox Valley to hunt. “When I went bear hunting, I was just south of Rhinelander and when I got my turkey I was in Shiocton, both on public land.” Vander Velden said. When she was 13 years old, Vander Velden won an essay contest for the Learn to Hunt Program. She spent the summer of 2009 learning about the biology and behaviors of black bear while

learning the rules and regulations of hunting black bear in Wisconsin. Two hours into the second day of hunting, Vander Velden and her hunting group, which included her parents, an employee of the Department of Natural Resources, the dog handlers and her mentor, heard howling from the dogs, which had treed a black bear. “We hiked deep into the woods to where the dogs were howling and saw a large female black bear up in a thick balsam tree,” Vander Velden. “After the dogs were leashed up, I took position and took my first shot and hit the bear straight through the lungs.” A second shot dropped the 300-pound black bear from the tree. “I was in shock, I couldn’t believe I had just shot my first bear,” Vander Velden said. “Everyone was congratulating me, and all of the men there were shocked that

I pulled that off.” Vander Velden said that memory will stick with her the rest of her life. “It was one of the most memorable moments of my

life,” Vander Velden said. “I was so proud of myself, and I definitely knew how lucky I was to have an opportunity like that, especially since I am a girl.”

This phrase has many meanings, and few if any of them involve hanging out alone. The following flicks, with their big casts and team-driven antics, are guaranteed to not make you feel like you’re alone watching a movie. Which you are.

Friends

Television Series, 1994-2004 This title has it all for you. Friends! Study up with 10 seasons Joey, Rachel, Chandler, etc. You know them all. Really watch this time through, though. You’re alone, and this is a perfect chance for you to catch actors portraying friends. Keep a notebook handy. There’s even a Thanksgiving episode so that you can prepare for next year.

Blue Bloods

Television Series, 2010 You may not be with your parents for Thanksgiving, but maybe you will be for Christmas. Whatever the case, you probably need something to talk about. If statistics and demographics are to be believed, one if not both of your parents watch this CBS cop-drama starring Tom Selleck and his moustache. There are five seasons, so you can watch as much or as little, depending on how much you need to impress your parents.

Divorce Corp. Documentary, 2014

Maybe your solo “Netflix and Chill” isn’t the worst thing that could happen to you. In this fascinating documentary, learn about the nuances of family court and the upstanding moral citizens who practice marriage law. The shocking truth about loopholes in the system, corruption and a ruthless “money over everything” attitude will assure you you’ve been right all along about living the single life.

Wet Hot American Summer

Comedy, 2001

What can elicit more memories of friends and fun than summer camp? Or summer for that matter? It’s getting cold, and you’re alone. Enjoy the nostalgia of the ‘80s and the days of running free during the nicest months of the year with Bradley Cooper, Elizabeth Banks, Paul Rudd and about 15 other names you’ll recognize. Amy Poehler, anyone? Bonus: When you’re done enjoying this unique and hilarious alt-comedy, you can reunite with the crew for eight episodes of its newly-released Netflix miniseries, “Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp.”
