Bank Loan Day is an event for kids who want to be involved in Lemonade Day to get their bank loans from First United Bank at their 4th and Frankford location. Bank Loan Day teaches children how to take out a small business loan for their lemonade stands.

Participating children will need to complete a  business plan for their Lemonade stand, speak with a loan officer and apply for a small business loan. Each applicant can receive up to $40. Much like a traditional loan for small businesses, children will pay a $1 processing fee for their loan and be expected to pay the money they borrowed by Friday, May 12.

Loan forms will be provided at the event and the process of applying for a loan will be explained by a loan officer.

The mission of Lubbock Lemonade Day mission is to help today's youth become the business leaders, social advocates, community volunteers and forward-thinking citizens of tomorrow . . . one lemonade stand at a time.

Hundreds of local youth in Lubbock started a business on Lemonade Day in 2022 - this year you can be one!

Kids will get tips and ideas to help their Lemonade Stand "Stand Out!". We will spend time talking about what makes their stands different from others and help them come up with a creative names. We will then go over best practices to make their signs stand out. We will have markers and poster boards so they can create signs. And finally talk about marketing their signs by making videos with their parents that they can share with family and friends
