FAQs

Not this year! We’ve decided to rebrand Lemonade Day into Lemonade Day Junior Market, and this is held on Saturday, May 18th 2024 at the Raymond Center
-
Nope! This year all stands/booths will be at the Raymond Center.
In years’ past some stands weren’t able to get as much attention due to being outside city limits, so we’ve decided to “squeeze” in and hold everything at one location
-
That’s the best part! This year, you’re not limited to just lemonade. Want to sell jewelry? Comics? Baked Goods? Magic Tricks? Well then, we’re not going to stop you! If you can design it, you can sell it, and we want to buy it!

Lemon University 2024
Our Lemon University participants attended four courses through the beginning of 2024 to learn about a wide array of topics, including financial literacy, marketing & branding, communications, and even how to assemble a stand of their own — all from community partners who are experts in their fields. Participants were equipped with the tools and skills needed to have a successful Lemonade Day. It was our first year rolling out this educational component to Lemonade Day, and we want to continue to offer this amazing learning experience to Williston.
Want to be the first to know about Lemon University 2025?
Lemon University will be back in early 2025! We will have freshly-squeezed lessons in entrepreneurship for kids of all ages led by local community experts.

what is lemonade day?
Lemonade Day is a FREE, fun, experiential learning program that teaches youth how to start, own and operate their own business – a lemonade stand.
The foremost objective of Lemonade Day is to empower youth to take ownership of their lives and become productive members of society – the business leaders, social advocates, volunteers, and forward thinking citizens of tomorrow.
Each child that registers downloads a FREE app and will pick-up a backpack to hold their tools for success. The FREE Lemonade Day app teaches them the lessons of Lemonade Day like creating budgets, setting profit-making goals, serving customers, repaying investors, and giving back to the community. Along the way, they acquire skills in goal-setting, problem solving, and gain self-esteem critical for future success. They keep all the money they make and are encouraged to spend some, save some and share some.
