For people who got hungry, there was a youth ambassador fundraiser, sponsored by Buffalo Dog House and Mount Saint Mary's Hospital. For a three dollar donation, people could have a hot dog, with or without baked beans, and a beverage. As you will see from the pictures below, some very famous island residents took turns cooking and serving the hot dogs. The baked beans were self serve.
Here are some images from KidBiz:

Everyone wins! One dollar for a spin. My prize was a stress ball. I chose a green one because it seemed to be a relaxing color, good for stress relief. |

Jam and handmade soap. I bought the soap and like it very much. It has a pleasant aroma and it produces a lot of suds. |

Sounds like a fab event! I remember these type of activities when we were in high school, so it's so fab that they're open for younger kids too. Looks like everyone had fun!
I love it when kids design and sell their own stuff. Even if it's corny, it's still a hoot to watch how and why they do it.
What a wonderful idea! I haven't heard of this type of expo in the Binghamton area, but I think the children had a blast making things. I enjoyed the homemade fidget spinners - how clever.
