Calling all young entrepreneurs in grades 1-8

Join us for this one-month entrepreneurial camp to learn key business principles and gain essential tools needed to start your own business.

​

Learn through a fun and interactive game called Entrepreneur-ship (E-ship). In       

E-Ship, students seek to find and create a business that is right for them. Students travel across a life-size entrepreneurial game board to islands that represent different questions an entrepreneur asks along his or her journey.

​

Islands include:

1. Motivation - Finding one's passions + need/problem in the world = one's calling in life.

2. Market - Understanding your customers.

3. Company Identity - Building a brand.

4. Unit Economics - Understanding the numbers.

5. Hiring - Should I hire and if so, when?

6. Competition & Substitute - Determine, defend and stand out!

​

At the end of each topic, a community professional will join us to share a real-life experience on the subject. These examples help the students better understand the principles and also motivates them through their own business journey. 

​

Once the students navigate their “entrepreneur-ships” through the 6 different islands, they will land at their final destination; a business ready to present locally, online or to the Magic Valley Kid Market.

​

Each day will begin with a half hour of team building activities to discover each other's unique strengths and to build lasting relationships with other young entrepreneurs in our community. 

​

The purpose of the E-ship journey is to equip students with skills, tools and frameworks needed to start and run a business. The summer session will have three main goals:

• To learn more about others, themselves and what they love

• To learn as much about entrepreneurship as possible

• To create a business that's ready to take to the world

​

Don't miss this unique opportunity to get your feet wet in the world of entrepreneurship! We can't wait to see you there.
