An event for business owners to share the ridiculous things they've been asked to do, and how they dealt with it. Come share some laughs!

Running a business has big wins. But let's be honest.

It also has some truly crazy moments.

The kind where you think "You want me to WHAT?!"

That's how this event was born.

You Want Me to WHAT?! is a free monthly networking night for business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals who want something different.

No stiff handshakes. No boring elevator pitches.

Just real people sharing real stories about the wild side of business life.

Impossible deadlines.

Weird requests.

And "you cannot make this up" moments.

The best part is the Wall of WTF.

It's a big colorful board where guests post their most outrageous work stories completely anonymous.

By the end of the night it's covered in notes that prove one thing.

We are all in this together.

The evening is filled with open networking, story sharing, and fun awards for the most over the top moments.

You'll leave with new connections, fresh ideas, and maybe even a good laugh about the chaos we call business.

This is not about pitching.

It's about people.

It's about laughing, swapping stories, and finding community in the craziness.

Bring your best story and join us for You Want Me to WHAT?!

It's Fort Saskatchewan's most fun and a little un-serious networking night.
