I had the privilege to volunteer as a chaperone at Camp Enterprise,Bethell Hospice hike continues in Bolton located at Cedar Glen YMCA Camp May 6.
This is a business, entrepreneur’s camp running from May 5 to 8, involving 43 Grade 11 and 12 students from numerous high schools in the two Rotary Districts — 7080 and 7070.
The program consisted of varied guest speakers who lectured, challenged and involved the students in subjects ranging from Habit Hacks and Top Performers, Portrait of an Entrepreneur, Creating a Small Business, Presenting Business Plans, Labour-Management Negotiation, Personal Finances and a Business Game.
The students also took part in fun ice-breakers, outdoor activities with the YMCA staff and a dance, movie and pizza night.
My day was spent observing these amazing students working in small groups, devising a business plan for their newly thought up business. Their sheer enthusiasm, co-operation, brainstorming of ideas and respect for each other was a joy to witness. These are intelligent teens who no doubt will be our leaders of tomorrow.
This Rotary camp is available each spring through your local Rotary Club and high school.
