6 year old Ellie Mae Scurlock has a dream to visit Paris when she turns 16 and is wasting no time raising the money for her dream trip!
To raise funds, she’s selling lemonade for $1 glass at a stand outside of her grandmother’s Jacksonville bike shop, Cycle Analysis on 5th Street.
Grandmother Jana Jensen says, “Ellie just loves the Eiffel Tower and is always playing with an ap on my I-phone for the Louvre Museum. So, she decided to work and save all of her money and go in style!”
Jana plays a part in the business by squeezing fresh lemons every Friday morning – the stand is only open on Fridays. “Ellie starts selling lemonade on Friday mornings and sells until she runs out,” Jana adds.
Business has been good for little Ellie who so far who says she’s put $50 away, most of which is in the form of extra tips from customers who also want her travel dreams to come true.
