Senior Eric Starr hopes to follow in the footsteps of the masters and become an entrepreneur himself. After graduation this May, he hopes to work for a few years and then start his own business. This summer, Starr took his first steps to work toward that dream. Starr devised a one-page project proposal to create folders that would inform freshmen of local businesses around Greencastle. The group is a project-driven club, according to the business coordinator and advisor Bart Spencer.
Members create and carry out business-driven projects.
Spencer approached Starr with an idea for a project last year. Starr turned the idea into reality this summer. Starr decided to create folders filled with informational fliers about local merchants. This summer, he walked around to area merchants, asking if they would like to promote themselves to the freshmen and their parents. There are a bunch of small businesses on the square.
