Episode 72: Welcome to Champaign-Urbana

Listen Later

Moving to a new community is hard. Making friends, connecting with resources, finding local events and businesses, and ways to volunteer—it can all be overwhelming. Zelda Gardner, a member of the Chambana Welcome Crew, talks to Carly & Terri about her experience in helping newcomers settle into the area. She shares how her passion for the community has not only helped her roll out the red carpet for new residents, but it’s also helped reignite her desire to explore, meet new people, and foster engagement in Champaign-Urbana.

 

Stay tuned in to plan a weekend full of events in the greater Champaign-Urbana area!
