Toys by Teens, LLC was formed by the not-for-profit group Teen Entrepreneur Boot Camp to create a real-working business model to teach students about entrepreneurship. Dr. Howard Wexler, inventor of the game Connect Four, donated a new invention to the project for the students to launch into the marketplace. The eventual revenue earned from sales will be used to offer this free program to new teams of students.

Mötley Brüe: Day 5
Today, I have good news and bad news to report. The bad news is that we are really, really behind on our work. The good news is that today, we got quite a bit done. In the morning we had an HR specialist talk to us about getting a job and being an effective worker. After that informative session, we studied the various forms and permits which would be needed to open a real restaurant or coffee bar. The vast amount of permits and rules which one would have to complete in order to open a real restaurant was staggering. After lunch we went into a working frenzy. We finally did what was long overdue and gathered the remaining press contact info we needed and sent out the press release. We also worked on our floor plan, assembled an inventory of paper utensils, painted our sandwich board, created a flyer, and finished a draft of the menu. The sheer amount of tasks we completed was amazing, and so much better than yesterday. However with only three working days left before the public opening of our coffee bar, we are all worried that we won't complete our restaurant in time. But today's events showed that we really could get a lot done, and If we work this hard all the time, we will surely be able to open this shop in time.
