YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS COMPETE FOR "BEST TASTING LEMONADE" TITLE

Join local inventor and entrepreneur Scott Jones, WISH-TV Anchor Karen Hensel and WIBC Morning News Hosts Terri Stacy and Joe Staysniak as they kick off the first of three contests for Lemonade Day: The Best Tasting Lemonade Contest. A project of the Think Forward Foundation, Lemonade Day Indianapolis is a free, citywide initiative designed to teach kids how to start, own and operate their own business - a lemonade stand.

On the afternoon of April 25th at Broad Ripple Park, more than 25 kids will compete for the Best Tasting Lemonade title. Indianapolis-Area youth will bring their lemonade stands, enough lemonade for the judges and will go head-to-head in a lemonade taste-off with the winner being awarded a new iPad. The event is open to the public, rain or shine. Then, on May 2nd, Lemonade Day, the contestants will join more than 5,000 other Indianapolis-Area youth in setting up their lemonade stands around the City and becoming lemonade tycoons! Kids can still register at Broad Ripple Park that day or at the College Avenue Branch of the Marion County Public Library.
