Bartlett & West sponsors event that teaches children entrepreneurship


Saturday, July 20th was Lemonade Day in Bismarck-Mandan, North Dakota. The Lemonade Day program is hosted by the Bismarck-Mandan Chamber EDC as a free, fun, experiential learning program that teaches kids how to start, own and operate their own business—a lemonade stand.

The participating children are encouraged to split their profits into three categories - spending, savings and charitable donation. Bartlett & West was a Fresh Squeeze Sponsor of Lemonade Day and provided calculators for the participant packets. Our marketing leader, Amber Larson, also was part of the bus tour on Saturday, visiting six different lemonade stands in Bismarck-Mandan.
