If you find yourself driving around Sunrise School this week, be prepared to pull over for a glass of lemonade. For the third year in a row, the Sunrise Elementary Summer School is hosting its lemonade stand class to help raise funds for a new playground at Sawyer Elementary School and for the Sunrise Elementary School Activity Fund. Last fall, Sunrise Elementary School opened its all-inclusive playground for the community to enjoy, which was funded partially by the lemonade stand classes from the last two years.
Incoming fifth grader Audrey Luberger attended one of the lemonade stand days last year, making it priority for her to get into the class this year. In addition to being able to make a difference for students at Sawyer Elementary, Luberger says she has learned a lot in the class such as how to be time and cost-efficient making lemonade and how to make puppy chow.
Students are serving puppy chow and offering carnival games and tattoos as extra incentive for community members to check out their lemonade stand, which will reopen for the final time this summer on July 9th from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
