Yesterday on Regional Radio News, listeners and readers were introduced to the program 'Bizz-Town' through The Vault in Clinton.
Connie Unruh with the TS Institute in Clinton leads the program on Wednesdays after school. She explains each week offers a new lesson and students learn the ins and outs of financial management and business management.
Rowen Kaufman is a 13-year-old seventh-grader and has learned money management and how to save rather than spend. He has enjoyed his time in 'Bizz-Town' because he gets to go through the program with his friends.
Karalyen Peterson is a 12-year-old seventh-grader who enjoys the program especially because it teaches kids how to manage money and gives them early lessons into business management.
The theme of 'Bizz-Town' this year is grit. Unruh says the business world can be a great place to learn things like perseverance, resilience, and resolve.
The 'Bizz-Town' students are holding their Christmas Bazaar again this December. The event is Saturday, December 4 from 10 am to 2 pm. Get more information by contacting The Vault at 217-934-4003.
