Teepee Creek students start own small businesses

The Teepee Creek business community is seeing a surge in startups today.

Since September, grade seven and eight students have been developing their own small businesses with a hypothetical $1,000,000 budget.

Jenna Yasinowski challenged them to look at their own skills and the needs of the local market to come up with a viable business.

“I hope that they get the spirit of what makes them unique out of this, and all the hard work that’s put in to planning out a business.”

The students will be going around the community today with business cards and flyers as well as taking orders for everything from babysitting services to farm fresh eggs and baking.
