Get your Lemonade Here

Smiles and lemonade will bring a little sunshine to the Seattle Boat Show.

Enjoy refreshing FREE lemonade served by a dynamic duo of young entrepreneurs! Sisters Kate (13 yrs.) and Quinn (10 yrs.), the owner/operators behind Lake Union’s only floating lemonade stand, Lemons for Good. The girls will be serving free lemonade on Saturday(s) and Sunday, Noon to 3pm in the Youth Boating Center, from their battery powered lemonade stand built atop marine dock floats. Come admire their innovative creativity and entrepreneurial spirit. With a loan and a little help from their father, the sisters started their business to earn money and to give back to the community. One-third of their proceeds support micro-loan programs for women in developing countries and their favorite charity, the Rainer Animal Fund, which provides free veterinary care to families and pets in need.
