The children of Ironwood Greens and Lockwood Estates hosted the 4th Annual Lemonade Stand for Charity during the LPGA Founders Cup at Wildfire Golf Club.
What started as a little lemonade stand for some weekend fun has turned into a much-anticipated crowd favorite by the LPGA Founder’s Cup fans. Four years ago, children of Ironwood Greens and Lockwood Estates opened a lemonade stand to pass the time as golf-lovers passed through their neighborhood on the way to Wildfire Golf Club for the weekend long event. The lemonade stand now serves as a learning experience for the kids about giving back to the community.
The support from the neighborhood along with the LPGA golfers, volunteers and spectators provides the neighborhood kids with the anticipation of success that has them looking forward to this March event every year. This year’s lemonade sales raised $1,041 for two deserving charities: Arizona Animal Welfare and the Cleft & Craniofacial Center. During April, the young roadside vendors presented each charity with a check in person so they could learn about how their weekend of work will make a difference for an animal or a child.
