Welcome to Northern Chesapeake, Maryland Polka Dot Powerhouse!

Come as you are. Feel connected. Be celebrated.

We are a community of women who lift each other up, celebrate each other’s wins, and offer support when life gets hard. We also know how to laugh, let loose, and have fun!

This chapter has made me feel loved, included, and free to be myself. As Managing Director, I want every woman who walks through our doors to experience that same welcome.

Whether you live in Harford or Cecil County, are visiting from another chapter, or are discovering Polka Dot Powerhouse for the first time, we’ve saved a seat for you.

What is Polka Dot Powerhouse?

“A worldwide community of positive, purpose-driven women in every stage of life who are committed to connection, collaboration, and celebration.”

Here, connection starts with who you are. We are more than our jobs, our businesses, or the roles we fill for others. You don’t need to own a business or have everything figured out to belong.

Our chapter brings women together to build friendships, share ideas, grow in confidence, and support one another personally or professionally. Everyone helps shape the community through the kindness, experiences, and energy she brings.

There is room for you here.

We don’t limit membership by industry. We believe there is enough opportunity for everyone, and we welcome collaboration, referrals, shared knowledge, and encouragement.

Bring your goals, your questions, your humor, community interests, and your everyday self. You’ll find women ready to get to know you and cheer you on.

Monthly Connection Meetings

Join us on the third Tuesday of each month, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time.

Meeting location and agenda details are included in the event listing when you register.

Your connections can reach beyond our chapter.

Membership opens the door to the worldwide Dot community, with opportunities to connect through in-person and virtual chapter meetings, local and national events, and the member website. Diamond Membership offers additional opportunities for business growth.

Visiting Dot sisters are always welcome in Northern Chesapeake—we love making new connections!

Come visit us!

Your first meeting is complimentary; you simply cover the cost of your meal. Bring a friend, come meet the women, and experience the sisterhood for yourself. There’s no pressure to join.
