John and Bradley are operating Surf, Wind and Sail, a boardsail business in 'Thunder Bay. "Our business is run by boardsailors for boardsailors" says Bradley a 23 year old Bachelor of Commerce student at University of Manitoba. John also 23 and a Bachelor of Commerce student at Lakehead University adds "We are gaining practical ex- perience developing managerial skills. That's a taste of business a textbook can't deliver." According to John and Bradley, the benefits of running your own bus- iness are immense. "We buy our equip- ment at cost, learn valu- able business tech- niques as well as have lots of fun. Best of all we are confident we are going to be here for a few more years."' Their business is in its second summer of op- eration with assistance from the Student Ven- ture Capital program. "The Student Venture Capital program pro- vides an opportunity for students to borrow up to $2,000 interest-free to plan- and operate their own summer business. The program is de- signed to encourage en- DANGER Owners of household washer-dryer units made in Spain by NEW POL are warned to stop using them immediately because of a potential fire and shock hazard: The Canadian Stan- dards Association (CSA) says a number of fires trepreneurial activity and to teach young peo- ple practical small bus- iness concepts. Young people apply through their local Chamber of Commerce who interview them to determine the feasibility of the business. Upon' the Chamber of Com- merce's recommenda- tion, the Ontario Youth Secretariat approves the application and the Roy- al Bank issues the loan. To be eligible for the Student Venture Cap- ital program, the young person must be at least 15 years old, returning - to school in the fall and be a Canadian citizen. According to Melissa Felteau, Summer Infor- mation Officer for the Ontario Youth Secre- tariat, more young peo- ple in Northwestern On- tario should get in- volved in this program. "It is a fantastic oppor- tunity for young people to gain valuable market- able skills, earn some money and likely ex-, perience the most ex- citing summer of their life."' This summer up to 2 million dollars was avail- able to accommodate 1100 businesses 'across Ontario. Unfortunately only twelve Student Venture Capital busi- nesses are operating be- tween Sault Ste. Marie and Kenora. These in- clude: Eagle Audio in Vermilion Bay, Bird- house Enterprises in Fort Frances, Andrew have been reportedly caused by these ma- chines which bear Model Number 1081. CSA says inspection has shown they do not comply to details of con- struction as required by its certification and that these machines bear the Clark Painting, Len Do- herty Logging, Surf, Wind and Sail, all in Thunder Bay and seven other Student' Venture Capital businesses in Sault Ste. Marie. "Young people in Stu- dent Venture Capital businesses could bene- fit from this program,"' says Felteau. More information and applications are avail- able at Canada Employ- ment Centres for Stu- dents, high school gui- dance offices, college or university student placement centres, par- ticipating Chamber of Commerce, Royal Bank branches, local offices of Members of Provincial Parliament and the On- tario Youth Secretariat (call collect 416-965- 0546). The loan is in- ' terest-free from April 2 to October 1 and the application deadline is June 15. To address youth un- employment, over the next three years the provincial government will spend $450 million on new Ontario Youth Opportunities. As part of this program a re- vised Venture Capital program will be starting this fall. Up to a $5,000 interest-free loan will be-~-- available for out-of- school youths to start year-round businesses. For more information about the Venture Cap- ital program or any other youth employ- ment program call toll- free 1-800-263-7777. CSA mark illegally. It is recommended that own- ers immediately cease the use of these ma- chines and return them to the retail outlets where they were pur- chased.
