Greater New Milford Children’s Business Fair

Observe the opportunity for children to launch their very own startup business!
Kids develop a brand, create a product or service, build a marketing strategy, and then open for customers at our one-day marketplace.
We will host ~30 booths at the 2nd annual Greater  New Milford Children’s Business Fair at JOhn Pettibone Community Center on Saturday May 11th, from 12:00PM – 3:00PM. The Fair will be located in the Gymnasium.
This event is sponsored by Acton Academy, the Acton School of Business, and the generous support of our donors and volunteers.  We all believe that principled entrepreneurs are heroes and role models for the next generation.
Whether an entrepreneur is famous like Elon Musk or Oprah Winfrey or they are one of the thousands of unsung business owners across this country, these are the people who make sacrifices to innovate, create jobs and serve their communities.
