Lemonade for Wishes is an event created by Make-A-Wish Canada to quench some summer thirst and get our communities fundraising for a great cause through a good old-fashioned lemonade stand! Kids, families and even businesses can participate. Set up a stand anytime between June 1-September 30 and sell a refreshing glass of lemonade for a donation to Make-A-Wish. Register your stand and see full event details at makeawish.ca/lemonadeforwishesab. Lemonade stand donations raised go toward helping transform the lives of children with critical illnesses.

Great news! There is a brand new Art Summer Camp available for children from 7 - 12 years old. Join Miss. Mackenzie for a week of unique, fun, and educational adventures in art and dance. Your child will walk away with new knowledge and experiences of art, friendship, dancing, and creating! We will learn a bit about art history and artists around the world as well as take part in creating our own masterpieces! As we discover multiple areas of the art world from drawing, painting, sculpting, and crafting, we will be actively teaching that art - though something we can practice - is about creating, playing, and having fun!! Your child will learn how to be mindful and encouraging of creations from others while also experiencing a safe and happy space to be free to create whatever they desire. Only 20 spots are available for each week.

What can I do? How do I get involved? For these events to be a success, and to grow the local #startup community, we need entrepreneurs at all stages of the startup & launch phases. Looking to meet other startups and entrepreneurs? Got a new idea? Have a concept you are curious about? Ready to pitch for funding? Looking to grow an existing business?

Join us for an evening of back-to-school fun and connection! We will have a variety of partners on hand with resources, as well as lots of fun activities, games, and a food truck! Tue, Aug 23 | 6-8pm Cochrane & Area Family Resource Network | 127 First Ave W
