With Lemonade Sales Lemonade stands are popping up around the country as kids look to do what they can to raise money for the Red Cross. In Longview, Washington 14 year old Kristi Nordquist and 22 of her neighborhood friends set up a lemonade stand. During three days of business, they raised nearly 1 thousand dollars. Many customers paid more than the asking price of a quarter per glass. She says some people just handed her 20 dollar bills.
Kids say they're selling lemonade partly because they're too young to donate blood.
