The Rawlins County High School Entrepreneurship Fair took place on Wednesday, March 4th, bringing together 17 Business Ideas and 35 students for an exciting day of innovation and competition. Sponsored by NetWork Kansas and Rawlins County Economic Development, the event showcased the entrepreneurial talent and creativity of local students. Each team presented its business idea to a panel of five selected judges and answered questions about their concepts.
