Lake Forest Veterans Park Dedication on September 24
After an enormous amount of hard work and generosity by hundreds of individuals over the last decade, the monument for Veterans from Lake Forest who have given their lives in service to our country will be unveiled on Sunday, September 24 at 1:00pm at the new Veterans Park, at the corner of Deerpath and Green Bay Roads. The ceremony will include music from the LFHS band and the reading of the names of the veterans who have given their lives. Immediately following the ceremony, there will be a two hour reception at the Deer Path Inn for those who have worked to bring the monument and Park to fruition and/or contributed to the monument. Hors d’oeuvres and beverages will be served. Families of the veterans honored by the monument are encouraged to arrive by 12:30 pm and chairs will be provided at the front of the assembly.
An RSVP by family would be appreciated by email to lfveteransmonument@gmail.com. There is free parking at the City lot, one half block east of the Park, on the north side of Deerpath Road.
While LFHS Alumni Relations is not involved with the planning or execution of this event, we are proud that many of our alums support this project, and are grateful to our veterans for their selfless service.
Become a Business Incubator Coach or Mentor!
What is the Business Incubator?
The LFHS Foundation partnered with Lake Forest High School to create the Business Incubator in Fall 2014. This Junior level Honors course in the Business Department offers students a unique opportunity to become true entrepreneurs by creating and developing their own product or service. Students are coached and mentored by real entrepreneurs and business experts from our community and beyond.
During the year-long course, student teams learn about ideation, marketing, accounting, human resources, as well as the legal and financial aspects of running a business. Principles and processes from the LEAN concept - a scientific approach to creating and managing startups - guide students as they test their thinking and vision. To further inspire creativity, a customized classroom has been designed to ignite brainstorming and foster collaboration as students develop products and services for the real world.
The course culminates in Pitch Night, a “Shark-Tank” style presentation where student teams present their innovative ideas to a Board of Directors for the chance to earn funding for their businesses. Part of this process also includes the student teams working to create promotional materials, press releases, and to solicit potential investors to attend Pitch Night.
Teams that are funded during Pitch Night then have the option to continue on with the process of starting up their business during the second year program, the Business Accelerator – a Senior level honors business class.
