Wabash Valley Lemonade Day<\/h2>\n

August 5, 2017<\/h2>\n

Last year, our girls had their\u00a0first sweet, sweet taste of entrepreneurial success when they manned a lemonade stand all summer long at the Downtown Terre Haute Farmer’s Market.<\/p>\n

This experience\u00a0gave them hands-on experience with concepts such as supply and demand, budgeting (we divided their earnings into give\/save\/spend categories), labor\/food costs,\u00a0marketing, and the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.\u00a0\"Register<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lemonade stands are the perfect first business because the cost of entry is low, the workload is manageable, and the potential for success is reasonably high!<\/p>\n

If your child is interested in a low-pressure business experiment,\u00a0Wabash Valley Lemonade Day is the perfect opportunity for your kiddos to experiment and learn.\u00a0It’s completely free to join! <\/strong>And\u00a0by participating in this community event your child will have the support he or she needs to learn from the\u00a0experience regardless of the financial results. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
