Another of our goals is to put out a newsletter, so everyone can stay in touch. Rouwenhorst wants more involvement with schools. We let all the guidance counselors know about this program. The goal of the camp is to help the youths start thinking outside the box. We've got to plant the seed.
Campers write up a business plan.
A banquet is held for the youngsters and their parents at the end of the camp. The youths stand up and say what their plans are in front of the group. That's good experience, too. The program focuses on creativity. The youths end up with a business plan, after we bring in six to eight local entrepreneurs that share their story.
