'NOTHIN' FINER THAN LEMONADE FROM WEIMER'

The 5th grade class of Mr. David Johnson at Weimer Elementary participated in an Entrepreneurship Week project on February 26, 2007
at the state Capitol.

Entrepreneurship Week is sponsored by Advantage Valley
in cooperation with the WV Department of Education.
 

The Advantage Valley Lemonade Stand Project teaches students how to start, operate and succeed at a business.
The students had a net profit of $187
(after repayment of a $100 loan from Star Federal Credit Union)
to use toward their end-of-school-year trip.

Coach Kidd even agreed to be the mascot to help the kids!
Coach and Libby decided to help the students by doing a remote broadcast to
promote their delicious lemonade and free cookies!
CK and LJ wanted the students to learn that Advertising and Marketing
are also essential to a successful business!
 

Only 5 students are permitted to attend the event but the entire class of
George C. Weimer Elementary School in St. Albans
participated in the project and they all did an A+ job!
 

Other teachers who helped include Janis Priddy and Bev Sanney.
Weimer Principal Suzanne Armstrong was also on hand to show her support.
