The Citizen, 2005-09-22, Page 19THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2005. PAGE 19. Local Madill student’s business plan gets Sth By Heather Crawford Citizen staff There's something to be said for teaehers intuition. Late last school year, Amy Bishop of Brussels left a business plan she had created for entrepreneurship class accidentally lying around the classroom. Her teacher Mr. Hamlin. found it and entered it into the Student Business Plan awards spomsored by the Huron Small Business Enterprise Centre. Bishops plan to reopen the Ark in Brussels as a place for kids to go, placed fifth in Huron County and garnered her a plaque and $100. Bishop, a 17-year-old student at F.E. Madill Secondary School, said “It was really cool because I didn’t even have to work on it in my spare time.” She would encourage students to “work really hard on your assignment.” because you never know what could happen. Bishop's plan included setting up a food stand, games, child care certificates and more. She drew up floor plans and calculated the financial figures needed to start a business. “It was a really good experience,” she said, “because it taught us how much work is needed [to set up a business] and everything that you need.” Bishop plans on attending Nipissing University in North Bay next year to study business. The award is designed to encourage secondary school students to learn more about entrepreneurship through the creation of an effective business plan. A press release for the award states, “We want to encourage youth to remain in. or return to, our county and to consider starting up a business here.” 9 members attend Melville Guild meeting The September meeting of the Melville Guild was held in the church parlour on Tuesday evening, Sept. 13 with nine members present.

Mary Huether led in prayer and Mrs. Dodds read 1st Samuel 25: 1- 42. Mrs. Huether read Samuel 85: 8. Romans 5: 1 and 2 and John 14: 27. Mrs. Dodds sang There Will Be Peace in the Valley. The message Breaking the Cycle of Violence was read by Mrs. Dodds followed by prayer. All the Way My Saviour Leads Me and the Mizpah Benediction was repeated.
