Come check out the different business plans conceived by students as part of the competition organized
by the Chamber. These students have worked hard over the last semester-plus on all aspects of their business concepts and your attendance and support would be appreciated!
The Fort Scott Area Chamber of Commerce will be hosting the fourth annual Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge in partnership with Fort Scott High School. Eighteen students have prepared startup business ideas and will compete for cash prizes to be judged on Tuesday, March 7th.
As part of the event, the students will have tradeshow exhibits displaying their business concepts in the Fort Scott High School auxiliary gym from 11:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. on Tuesday and the public is invited and encouraged to stop by during this time, take a look at the different booths, and vote for their favorite.
The Chamber organizes the program in association with the NetWork Kansas E-Community Partnership and Bourbon County is one of many communities across Kansas to host a local competition from which the students compete against each other for nearly $3,000 in prize money with the top winner advancing to the state Kansas Entrepreneurship Challenge to be held in April 20th in Manhattan.
The public is welcome and encouraged to stop by the tradeshow on Tuesday, March 7th to view the creative business plans and support these students who have worked on their projects over the past several months as part of their class.
Both the east and west doors of the high school will be open for entry during this time; however, it is encouraged that you use the main west doors to enter.
