The 2006 Entrepreneurial Bootcamp awarded more than $8,000 to winners of our Business Plan Contest during closing ceremonies at the event. Jonathan Lewis of Goldendale, Washington received the $5,000 Grand Prize for the Adult Contest for his business proposal for Seraphim Energy. The adult contest also featured awards of $2,500 and $1,000 which went to the second- and third-place winners respectively. Thirteen-year-old Christopher Youngblood came away with the “Budding Entrepreneur — Captain of Industry Award,” which included a $500 cash prize for his business plan for In His Hands Medical. Judges Scott Brown, Arnold Pent, and Wade Meyers (pictured above) were part of the team that evaluated, judged, and awarded the cash prizes to budding entrepreneurs. Many participants commented that the judges’ oral evaluations of the submissions were very helpful to better understand the process of conceiving and executing a worthy business plan.
