To ensure that students make sound financial decisons as adults, financial education experts contend that schools and families should start fostering financial literacy before the teen years.

• Kids learn fiscal responsibility as they explore money management.
• As both CEO and an "average customer", kids create their own economic system that includes currency and play at being in charge.
• Each camper will make a budget, earn an income, make investments and develop a business plan.
• Everyone invents a product to sell to be an entrepreneur. 
• This camp is a great "stimulus package" for each child's best economic interests!!

Students provide lunch, beverage and snacks.
