Description: If you mix together your grade school math class, entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and life skills into a blender, add lemon, and press "liquefy"...you get Lemonade Day, which encourages kids across the community to set up lemonade stands on a Saturday in June. It's a fun way to learn the basics of business, which can be useful even if a kid doesn't ever start one and becomes just another consumer. Laura Blaker, Events Director at the Boys and Girls Club of Bloomington, is our guest today and, as she also holds the title of Lemonade Day City Director for Monroe County, tells us all about how it works. (Fair warning: She likes to make puns...with zest.)Support the showA production of Plateia Media ©2024-5. All rights reserved.
