The idea box activity is presented to the Fenton, Lake Fenton and Linden High School Juniors and Seniors participating in the Chamber Career Connections - Young Men & Young Women in the Workforce Program. 

Approximately 200 students attend this program annually.

Groups of 10 receive a box filled with identical items and they use what’s in the box to create a product or service.  They also prepare an infomercial and presentation to share the idea and business plan with all attendees.

All items should be relatively small in size and identical in type & size. They do not have to be the same color.   

25 of each item requested.

At least one of each of the donated items will have to fit inside a box that measures 12”L x 12”W x 4”H 

Items are due by November 22, 2024. Please drop off your donated items to the chamber office or let us know you have them and we can pick them up from you.
