SUMMARY:CHAMBER - Reality Store for MISHICOT HIGH SCHOOL
DESCRIPTION:The Chamber of Manitowoc County is proud to present the financial education event\, "The Reality Store" at Mishicot High School. It will be held for 190 students\, grades 11-12 on Thursday\, April 22nd from 8:30 am   11:30 am.  The goal of this event is to help students learn basic skills in financial planning\, goal setting\, decision making\, and career planning.  The Reality Store will help students examine their attitudes about their futures and career expectations.  After their trip through the Reality Store\, students will have developed a more realistic idea of the financial impact their future decisions will have. We are contacting you as a potential volunteer to help staff the booths the day of the event. Each volunteer will be stationed at one of the Reality Store booths (a map of the booths will be sent to you prior to the event). Volunteers will have a booth description at their station which outlines the cost of each product your booth "sells" (i.e.: vehicle\, insurance\, home\, groceries)   no experience necessary. Students select their purchase and will then use a calculator to deduct the cost from their checkbook register and record the new balance.  Every 15 minutes a group of 40 students will rotate in/out of the Reality Store as it takes approximately one hour for a group of students to visit all the booths.  Volunteers will enjoy the event as much as the students. In order to keep this event focused on education\, we ask that no one bring promotional items to the Reality Store. We will be distributing "goodie" bags to the students\; if you would like to donate promotional items to go into these bags\, contact me (contact info is below). Please feel free to wear your company's logo apparel. Thank you for helping preserve the integrity of this event. On behalf of The Chamber of Manitowoc County\, we appreciate your commitment to our area youth and look forward to your participation and support in this most exciting event. Should you have any questions\, please feel free to contact me at hsoodsma@chambermanitowoccounty.org  or (920) 684.5575.  Volunteers should respond back to The Chamber by Wednesday\, April 16th \, 2010.
