Summer Startup: A Young Entrepreneurs Experience
Celebrate creativity, curiosity, and the entrepreneurial spirit with the Westerville Area Chamber, as we launch our inaugural Take Your Child to Work Day initiative! Join us for a fun, family-friendly event designed to inspire the next generation of innovators! Parents are encouraged to start the day by bringing their child to their workplace for a glimpse into the world of work, then join us at the Chamber office for a lively afternoon of hands-on activities.
Kids ages 5–14 will have the chance to explore the basics of starting their own business through interactive workshop stations focused on branding and design, business planning, money basics, and marketing their ideas. By the end of the experience, participants will leave with the beginnings of their very own Summer Startup — and the confidence to bring their ideas to life.
Families can also enjoy lunch from Tortilla Street Food Truck while connecting with other members of the community.
Whether your child dreams of running a lemonade stand, launching a pet-sitting service, or inventing something entirely new, this is the perfect place to spark their entrepreneurial imagination.
Join us for an afternoon of creativity, learning, and community as we celebrate Westerville’s future business leaders! 🚀
