The Haddocks are delighted to share the video of our first Get a Bigger Wagon Young Entrepreneur Awards. The presentation was part of the 12th event in our Haddock Entrepreneurial Speaker Series, which is presented, annually, at the Edwards School of Business. Our speaker, Mr. Duane Smith, began by sharing the story of his childhood chicken business and continued by sharing lessons learned through a successful entrepreneurial life. Definitely, his talk provided something for everyone.
There was magic in having seasoned entrepreneurs sharing the theatre with young entrepreneurs.
The Haddocks are pleased to present the second annual GABWYEA presentations. Each of the entrants demonstrated an ability to grow, change, and never give up. Three of our winners returned after last year with improved or new businesses. When a young competitor gets an idea from our speaker or while talking to a fellow competitor everyone involved in this program is pleased.
This year's Haddock Entrepreneurial Speaker was Jana Danielson of Lead Pilates and Fitness Centre. Nine-year-old McKayla KInnaird felt relieved when Jana suggested that it's ok to change directions, professions, and interests as you get older.
Welcome to our third Get a Bigger Wagon Young Entrepreneur Awards presentation. We have added two new competition categories: one for entrepreneurs aged 16 to 18 and one for leaders who inspire entrepreneurship called Sailing the Entrepreneur Ship.
The Haddocks enjoyed the presentation while following health safety protocols for the pandemic. We look forward to gathering at Edwards School of Business in January of 2022. The next competition begins on September 1, 2021. Enter early.

Congratulations to our 2021 winners and to all young entrepreneurs who participated. The next competition opens on September 1, 2022.
