After studying about the different aspects of owning your own business, Mrs. Newton’s Entrepreneurship class took a field trip to visit some small businesses and hear their personal stories about being an entrepreneur. The class started at Bubba’s Runway Café (we highly recommend it). We then headed to Yellow Frog Graphics for a tour of their facilities. After lunch, we visited Bfit Crossfit, walked around downtown St. Joseph to look at all the small businesses and then ended with a visit to 3 Wishes Bakery. At each stop we were able to learn from the business person what it takes to be an entrepreneur.From left to right: Savannah Ball, Rylan Smith, Landon Conard, Lilly Juhl
