Elkhart County youth set set up stands for Lemonade Day
ELKHART — Dozens of young entrepreneurs take to the streets Saturday for Lemonade Day, an annual event supported by Junior Achievement of Northern Indiana, Elkhart County.
Residents are encouraged to support these future business leaders by visiting local lemonade stands. Each stand is part of a hands-on program that teaches kids how to start and run their own business.
With business plans in hand and dreams in their hearts, these youth have been working hard to brand their businesses, create delicious products and learn the ropes of entrepreneurship, organizers said.
'This is a great opportunity to support young entrepreneurs as they test their business skills, learn about customer service and gain confidence,' a release about the event states. 'Whether you're craving a cold glass of lemonade, a sweet snack or just a smile from an excited young CEO, you're guaranteed to find it this Saturday.'
Participants in the program are eligible for prizes and compete to be named Elkhart County Entrepreneur of the Year.
