Summer Session
S'mores and entrepreneurship -- what more could a teenager want?
It's that time of year again--when countless
American teens are preparing for their annual trek to summer
camp. But for those parents envisioning a more educational approach
for their daughters, consider these camps with an
entrepreneurial edge: - Camp Entrepreneur: This
week-long program, open to girls ages 12 to 17, aims to
inspire and develop entrepreneurship, confidence and leadership
skills. Sponsored by Seton Hill College's National Education
Center for Women in Business, two locations are set for this
summer: in June at Youngstown State University in Ohio, and in
August at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville. The
number of participants per camp is limited to 24; the cost starts
at $225. To reserve a spot, call (800) NECWB-4-U.
- Mother and Daughter Entrepreneurs-In Teams
(MADE-IT): The four cities hosting this year are Muncie,
Indiana; Springfield, Massachusetts; Kansas City, Missouri; and
Brooklyn, New York. This free program starts with a week-long
summer camp and extends into the next two years with regular
instructional workshops. Its goal? To help mother-daughter teams
start homebased businesses that eventually turn enough profits to
cover college expenses. This year, the program targets--and is
limited to--girls between their seventh- and eighth-grade years.
Registration for this summer's camps is closed, but for
