City Police Put the Squeeze on Lemonade Stand







Congrats to the entire JSPH team for our efforts to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand!! Together, we raised over $1,500 through today's bake sale and online donations.
Our web page remains open for JSPH members, friends, and family, who care to make a donation: http://www.alexslemonade.org/stands/20326
As you can see from the pics above, we had a little run-in with the good officers of this city who pointed out, rightly, that we did not have the requisite city permit required to peddle home baked goods outdoors to the public. As good stewards of population health, we removed the home baked stuff but continued to sell pre-packaged items and a variety of beverages.
Thanks to all who stopped by our table to make donations for a very worthy cause - we appreciate your tremendous enthusiasm and generosity!!
