Celebrating The 1st Annual Spoon River CEO Pitch Competition Winners! 🎉

Our Spoon River CEO students recently took the stage to present powerful three-minute pitches that showcased their individual businesses in preparation for our upcoming Trade Show. Students demonstrated tremendous preparation, professionalism, and confidence while answering tough, Shark Tank-style questions from our judges!

🏆 1st Place: Bailey Emmons
🥈 2nd Place: Ahnna Richardson
🥉 3rd Place: Alyssa Fidler

We are incredibly proud of the hard work, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit all students displayed throughout the competition.

A special thank you to our judges for investing their time and expertise in our students:
• Jake Green, Spoon River CEO Board Chair
• Zac Chatterton, Superintendent of Farmington Central CUSD #265
• Tad DeRenzy, Superintendent of Canton Union School District #66

🗓️ If you'd like to see the businesses behind these pitches, mark your calendars! 🗓️

Our next (and final) event of the year is the Spoon River CEO Trade Show hosted at Spoon River College on April 29th from 5:00-7:00 p.m. Come out and support our students, do some local shopping, and see the results of a year of hard work in action. We hope to see you there!
