Thanks to all the branches of the Greensboro Public Library along with sponsor Greensboro Municipal Federal Credit for making the Economic Literacy Summer Series possible. Not to mention all the volunteers and participants. We’ll be announcing a similar event in the fall, but in the meantime, check out pictures from this June 7th to August 5th summer program:

Economy, Jr. @ Kathleen Clay Library Sat. 6/7 2-3:30pm sponsored by Greensboro Municipal Federal Credit Union
Kicking off the Economic Literacy Summer Series sponsored by Greensboro Municipal Federal Credit Union is Economy, Jr. at Kathleen Clay Library Saturday, June 7th 2:00-3:30pm FREE for area teens.
Economy, Jr. provides students with insight into both sides of the economic coin by having them choose at the start of the game whether they want to play as a customer spending a month’s paycheck from their chosen career on necessities such as housing, groceries, child care, and more or as a merchant selling these products to customers to cover daily overhead and hopefully post a profit.
