Wheeler Summer has partnered with SPARK Business Academy for Summer 2022. SPARK’s innovative financial literacy and entrepreneurship camps have been empowering kids since 2014.
My First Lemonade Stand (ages 6-8) July 18 – July 29th
Let’s sell lemonade! Young campers become “lemonade entrepreneurs” and learn how to make yummy lemonade and earn money selling it! From designing marketing flyers to estimating profits to experimenting with recipes, campers have fun all week while developing business savvy. As an optional showcase event, campers launch the lemonade stand at the end of the session to raise money for a charity they select!
Jr. CEOs (ages 12-14) July 5th – July 15th
How cool would it be for you to be the boss at Apple or Nike for a day? In this leadership program, you can! Campers act as CEOs for leading companies and collaborate to make strategic recommendations to address real business issues. Case studies include popular companies and examine the role of female and minority CEOs. Campers enhance their problem-solving skills, develop business savvy and cultivate a strategic mindset as future leaders.
