Lemonade stands help kids build strong work habits, have fun, and become young entrepreneurs. The reality is, they are being shut down because of old, arcane and very real permit laws. Last summer, Country Time took a stand by introducing Legal-Ade: a crack team ready to straighten out lemonade stand-related permits and fines. Legal-Ade defended kids’ rite to a lemonade stand and all the benefits they bestow.
This summer, Country Time wants to legalize lemonade stands across the country by giving parents and kids the tools to start changing the laws in their state. Simply go to www.countrytimelegalade.com to learn if lemonade stands are legal in your state without a permit. If they aren’t, Country Time is helping you start the process by giving you the information to contact your local state representative and providing a downloadable Legal-Ade support yard sign. Watch a video here on how to start changing your local lemonade laws.
If you live in a state that deems unpermitted lemonade stands illegal,
don’t worry, Legal-Ade is still helping kids this summer. Any child
fined for running an unpermitted lemonade stand can have his or her
parent apply for reimbursement. To apply, simply upload the image of
your child's permit or fine along with a description of what your
lemonade stand means to your child, in his or her own words. The
submission will be reviewed by the Legal-Ade team and if it complies
with the terms, you will receive the exact amount to cover the permit or
fine, up to
Go ahead, kids. Run your lemonade stands. Country Time Legal-Ade is on your side and will protect you. When life hands you outdated laws, legalize lemonade. Join the conversation: @CountryTime on Instagram and Twitter.
