Students in Medaille’s Academy for Creativity and
Entrepreneurship (ACE) at Riverside High School were on campus for a week-long
camp titled “Environmental Entrepreneurs: Developing Urban Micro-Parks.”
Throughout camp, students worked in teams to develop mini business plans, which
they presented on Friday, June 29 to a panel of community business leaders who
gave feedback to the aspiring young entrepreneurs.

Community leaders present to provide feedback to students included:

• Lavon Stephens '05 '07, Administrative Director at Buffalo & Erie County Workforce Development Consortium
• Joseph E. Wolfson, CEO, Health Transaction Network and member of the College's board of trustees 
• Philip L. Wiggle, adjunct professor at Medaille College
• Laurie Mahoney, President, Junior Achievement of Western New York
