Kids who rock Lemonade Day
An estimated 10.000 children will participate this year in Lemonade Day Indianapolis on May 21. We wanted to know: who are the young minds behind some of the successful stands in the city?
Avery Huggins, 9, Carmel
What's the name of your stand and its location?
Lemons, Limes and Bow Ties. I will be located in front of the Carmel Arts Council Children's Gallery on Main Street in Carmel.
What's the coolest thing about Lemonade Day?
I get to choose what to do with my profits using the Triple S Method — spend, share and save.
What do you do with the money you make?
This year, I will be sharing most of my profits with two local charities, The Woodland Christmas Club and Camp Saturday. The money I save will go toward buying parts to build a new computer. And I was thinking of spending some money on taking my mom out to lunch for all of the hard work she puts into helping me, but I'm still deciding on that one. […]
Do you want to run your own business as an adult? If so, what kind?
Yes! I want to have a video game-making business. I would love to design video games and even card games. My friends and I talk about this at lunch. I will be the CEO!

In a free country, anyone can open a business – even you. You may believe you can’t do anything to make money except deliver newspapers or flip burgers. Change your thinking. Become a part of the free-enterprise system!
