A couple of early missteps did little to slow business for a pair of sisters and their friend Tuesday afternoon.
Sophie and Olivia Carney and Payton Shaw set up a lemonade stand at the intersection of Broadway and Walnut streets Tuesday. They quickly sold out of the product, at 25 cents per cup.
Sales went well, even though the girls dropped a pitcher of the cool drink, forcing them to quickly mix up a second batch.
Then, as a pair of visitors dropped by, Shaw inadvertently dropped a pair of coins in her drink.
They were unsure whether the stand would remain open much longer. Although they were nearly out of lemonade by mid-afternoon, they still had other flavors of Kool-Aid drinks available.
Temperatures and chances of rain will play a factor, they admitted, and as youngsters are wont to do, they may have found another activity to pass their time.
