Enterprise Centre sparks youth entrepreneurship in Dawson Creek
In a 5,000 square foot Kiwanis Enterprise Centre at South Peace Secondary School, Grade 11 and 12 students present business plans. Debbie Hast aims to sell maternity wear as Full Dress, Cam Purvis runs Atomic Sound and Vision, Angie Rappel curates Alphabet Street toys, and Rob Terry sells stereo gear while pursuing a stock market game with Wilfrid Laurier University. Mac Taylor leads the center, offering incubator space, loans aid, inventor support, and courses while mentoring former students like Bob Wilfur who credit the program with launching his brokerage career. The venture, praised by alumni and expanding to other communities, fills a hands-on approach to entrepreneurship.
