Kids' Business Day

Calling All Aspiring Kid Entrepreneurs!

September 9, 2022

Big O’s Golf Carts is proud to announce their 4th annual Kids’ Business Day, a day for young aspiring entrepreneurs to showcase their most creative (and profitable!) business ideas for the community. The event will take place on Sunday, September 11, 2022, from 1:00-4:00PM at Big O’s Golf Carts in Peachtree City. All children ages 4-12 are welcome to participate and setup their businesses, and everyone is invited to come and support this unique event.

The owners, Andy and Ashlee Ilg, created this event to inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs. As parents themselves, they are passionate about giving real-life opportunities for children, and even the parents, to see the exciting and rewarding journey of business ownership.

“We love seeing the excitement on a child’s face when they realize they created something that others see value in. And when they are surrounded by other children experiencing the same excitement, it’s an electric environment,” said Andy, who has a personal story of being an engineer-turned-entrepreneur.

Young entrepreneurs at previous Kids’ Business Days have sold DIY slime, handmade renaissance weaponry, homemade baked goods, handmade jewelry, and everything in between. Cash awards and certificates were given to the top businesses in categories including Most Creative, Most Profitable and Best Enthusiasm. Andy and Ashlee look forward to awarding this year’s winners and celebrating the efforts of everyone who attends.

For more information and to register your child(ren) to participate, please contact Ashlee at 770-655-0711. Be sure to follow Big O’s Golf Carts on Facebook and Instagram for more updates on the event as well.
