Become a Market Biz Kid Astoria Sunday Market holds open house ASTORIA — Dream Big! The Astoria Sunday Market’s Young Entrepreneur program is hosting its annual Open House at 6 p.m. Monday, Jan. 26, at the Asto- ria Event Center located at 255 Ninth St. The event is a great opportunity to learn what it takes to be a Market Biz Kid during the 2015 Astoria Sunday Market season. Astoria Sunday Market part- ners with Clatsop County 4-H to run the Young Entrepreneurs and Biz Kidz program. The Young Entrepreneur’s Club offers kids in grades K-12 an opportunity to develop and create a product for sale at Asto- ria Sunday Market under the Biz Kidz tent. The Market and Clat- sop County 4-H leaders guide young entrepreneurs through the process with a series of work- shops with topics that include developing a product, salesman- ship, designing a display and planning a budget. “Whether or not a kid de- cides to participate in the Astoria Sunday Market, the workshops are a fun and interesting way to explore what it takes to turn a dream into reality,” said Cyndi Mudge, market director. “We strive to keep the workshops free, interesting and fun.” The program remains free thanks to underwriting from Recology Western Oregon, Wauna Federal Credit Union and Clatsop Community Bank. Piz- za and beverages will be served and kids are encouraged to bring their ideas and enthusiasm to share as they learn how to be- come a Young Entrepreneur.
