Event Description:

Join us for our quarterly Thrive event, Pancakes & Presidents! Except, this quarter we are switching it up to Pizza & Presidents.
This is your opportunity to hear from a local President/CEO as they share their story and open conversation to topics that will be beneficial in your growth as a professional in our community. This is a casual event that encourages group participation and conversation.
This quarter's Presidents are... Erin & Ernie, Owners of Five Star Pizza!

Erin and Ernie are lifelong Gainesville residents who met in high school and have been together ever since. They both started working at Five Star Pizza in 1995, and in 2001, were given the opportunity to open their own store. Their hard work paid off and that store became the foundation of their family business. In 2015, they purchased the original Downtown location, and in 2021, the Tower Road store. They're committed to giving back to the community that's given them so much. They support causes like Toys for Tots, Soldiers Freedom Outdoors, Tim Tebow's Night to Shine, Second Chance Rescue and Rehoming, the National Breast Cancer Foundation and more. They also love helping our local schools with pizza nights that raise money for things like field trips and renovations.

So, join us for great conversation and some delicious pizza!
