Description
Inspire your child’s inner entrepreneur at JA’s vibrant
summer camp!
At this camp, the kids run the place. That’s because
the place is Sam Swope JA BizTown®, a 7,000 squarefoot
mini-metropolis. JA BizTown is home to Papa
John’s, Stock Yards Bank, UPS, Walmart, WDRB Fox 41
and other businesses you find in our own region.
JA BizTown Camp gives kids the opportunity to
experience what it’s like to work in a job and run a
business. But it’s so much more!
JA BizTown Camp is an indoor, academic camp that
combines classroom-style teaching with hands-on
activities. Much of the camp experience includes
working with other campers of different ages on
group projects.
Concepts learned and applied at camp:
• Entrepreneurship – brainstorming ideas and bringing them to life
• Job preparation – applying for and interviewing for a job
• Business expenses – what are they and how do businesses cover costs
• Marketing – why and how to communicate your products or
services
• Customer service – why it’s important to business success
• Tradeoffs – what to do when business resources are limited
• Making money for a business – how costs and sales affect profit and loss
• Teamwork – working with a group to reach a goal
• Personal banking – using a checkbook to pay for things you need or want
And much more!
