With June 17 being Lemonade Day, there were tons of stands set up in the area to teach youth about owning and operating businesses.
One of these stands, made by 10-year-old Ivy Liss in Morinville, helped raise funds for the Jessica Martel Memorial Foundation.
"My great uncle made me a lemonade stand," said Liss. "and I was like, 'Wait, isn't there a thing called Lemonade Day?'"
Around 50 people made their way to her stand, which lead to her raising $180, giving 30 per cent of the proceeds to the foundation.
Liss has been hosting her lemonade stands for a few years, and although she made more the year before, she was happy to see the people who came out for 2023.
"[My favourite part was] being able to be able to try to talk to people," said Liss.
The Jessica Martel Memorial Foundation was founded in 2012 after Jessica Martel, a Morinville woman, was killed by her common-law partner in 2009.
