New Summer Program for Evanston High Schoolers Interested in Business

Are you a current or rising ETHS student? Join the YES! CAMP this summer to find out what it takes to own your own business! You can be a CEO, restaurant owner, inventor, retailer, musician, banker, doctor… or anything you want to be!

Join the Youth Entrepreneurship Summer (YES!) CAMP for the opportunity to:

  • Learn about entrepreneurship
  • Meet and learn from successful business leaders about potential career options
  • Develop your own business ideas and present them to a group of business professionals 
  • Build your leadership skills and meet new friends

 

YES! CAMP is a free program that runs from June 18th—July 19th. Learn more about the camp at our information night for students and/or parents from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. on May 8th in W201. Dinner is provided.

As an incentive to treat YES! CAMP like a job, students who have perfect attendance, show up on time, and participate actively in discussion will be rewarded with a $25 Visa gift card each week and an added $25 Visa gift card at the end of the program. So, students can earn $150 in Visa gift cards over the 5 weeks.

Applications are due on or before May 14th. Please apply by filling out the application at www.yeseths.org.
