The Grants Pass & Josephine County Chamber of Commerce is bringing "Lemonade Day" back in 2024. Last year, over 300 local kids participated.
Lemonade Day will be Friday, August 2nd, from 3 to 6 p.m. in Grants Pass.
Lemonade stands will be placed all over town where these young entrepreneurs will be selling their final product. Prizes will be given for the best product and most creative lemonade stand. Participants will also have a chance to be entered into a drawing for a $100 gift card.
Throughout the course of this free program, these young entrepreneurs learn how to start, own and operate their own business -- a lemonade stand. They will learn business skills, financial literacy, goal-setting and teamwork.
As in previous years, the Chamber will be partnering with the Boys & Girls Club to host a Resource Fair. The fair will provide helpful tips and booths on topics such as customer service, budget and financial assistance, creating a product, choosing a stand location, and answering any questions.
New this year, the Chamber is excited to launch the Lemonade Day App. It's an educational program that will take your child -- step by step -- on a journey to become an entrepreneur.
Registration for Lemonade Day opened May 1st and closes June 21st. Register now at "lemonadeday.org/grants-pass."
