Registration approaching for YouthBiz E-Show

School is back in session and students are excited to prepare for the 2010 YouthBiz E-Show.

School is back in session and students are excited to prepare for the 2010 YouthBiz E-Show. Registrations are now open to compete in the fourth annual E-Show and students and teachers have already contacted Community Futures (CF) Sunrise to arrange for school workshops and E-Show resource material, according to Verna O'Neill of CF Sunrise.

"The YouthBiz E-Show keeps gaining momentum every year. It's great to see such tremendous enthusiasm for youth entrepreneurship in the southeast region. The students are really creative and continue to think up new and interesting business ideas," said O'Neill. "Last year, approximately 120 students in southeast Saskatchewan competed for over $2,000 in prize money. We know that the outstanding efforts put forth by students will continue again in 2010. Our hats go off to the teachers in the region for encouraging student involvement."

The YouthBiz E-Show is an online tradeshow that features Grade 6 to 12 students' business ideas. Each tradeshow booth houses the students' work: a business plan, business card, poster, interactive booth host and other business materials.

Young people experience business ownership and can showcase their ideas on the Internet.

More information on this youth business competition is featured online at the CF website. Student entry deadline is November 26.

For more information, contact O'Neill at Community Futures Sunrise.
