The Central Texas community is invited to attend Oscar’s Market, a new event from Lemonade Day, on Saturday, October 4 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at Ogletree Gap Preserve Pavilion in Copperas Cove.

Oscar’s Market is an exciting extension of Lemonade Day for ages 10-18 that celebrates the creativity, hard work, and entrepreneurial spirit of our community’s youth.

These youth entrepreneurs have been hard at work learning how to plan, build, and run their very own small business and are ready to showcase their talents.

Visitors can shop for a wide variety of products and services at Oscar’s Market, including homemade baked goods, handmade crafts such as friendship bracelets, unique services, and more.

Families and community members are encouraged to come enjoy the variety of activities, meet the Oscar’s Market youth entrepreneurs, and shop local. Every purchase directly supports local youth entrepreneurs and encourages the next generation of leaders, innovators, and business owners.

During Oscar’s Market, every booth will be entered into a competition for the chance to win exciting prizes. A panel of VIP judges will visit each booth and cast their votes. Winners will be announced during the Oscar’s Market event at 1:45 p.m.

This is the first year Lemonade Day is hosting Oscar’s Market to expand entrepreneurial opportunities for older youth in the community. Lemonade Day is presented by First National Bank Texas and First Heroes National Bank, along with Cavalry Family Housing, and H-E-B.
