Power Lunch with Rusty George

Rusty George is the principal and founder of Rusty George Creative, one of the South Sound’s most noted design and marketing firms. Established in 1999, the firm’s work in corporate/brand identity, print, environmental and digital marketing solutions has been recognized for outstanding design and unprecedented customer service.

Rusty supervises a highly skilled staff of artists, designers, and new media experts. He's spearheaded successful branding and marketing strategies for many of the “who’s who” of South Puget Sound, including: Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium, Pierce County, The City of Tacoma, Tacoma Public Utilities, The Children’s Museum of Tacoma, and The Harmon Brewing Company.


Rusty George Creative’s award-winning work is centered on his core values: Design must be appealing and have personality, but most importantly: it’s got to work.


Community service and affiliations include: Rotary 8, Chamber of Commerce, PSAMA (Puget Sound American Marketing Association), Tacoma’s Economic Development Council, and Founder of DHHOA (David Hasselhoff Haters of America). His studio also provides generous grants of service to select non-profit organizations.

Chambers Bay Tourney!

Save the date for the YPN summer golf tournament. We'll be playing at Chambers Bay this year. Yes - that's right, Chambers Bay, site of the 2015 U.S. Open!

We have a special opportunity to play a 9 hole tournament. Chambers Bay does not offer a 9 hole option for regular play, so this is a great chance to play part of a championship course for much less than the 18 hole cost. Plus Chambers is offering us a great package including unlimited range and putting practice, a putting contest, drinks and prizes!

The official evite will be sent out soon. Sign up as a single or create your own foursome - this will be a memorable event.

When: Friday, July 15th - 4:30pm

How much: $55 members/$65 non-members
