The kiddos in one Spring Valley neighborhood are making the most of their time off from school as Houston area districts work to clean up the damage and reopen after last week storms.
The children, many of which attend Spring Branch ISD school’s, opened up two lemonade stands.
Lance Gross and his young friends said they came up with the idea last Friday and sell the lemonade at just 50 cents a glass.
Gross added that they’ve earned about $100 so far, and said that the community has really seemed to enjoy it.
“Their kind of saying that we are doing great and they like the effort,” Gross said.
Gemma Askew, one of the neighborhood moms, said watching over the children while cleaning up the neighborhood and waiting to learn when classes might resume has been a community effort.
“Between a few of the houses we got somebody home to keep an eye on them but that’s why you need friends and neighbors like we have,” said Askew.
The kiddos told KPRC 2 that they plan to use the money earned to get jerseys and possibly join a basketball league.
