Jeff Crilley and his son Dallas will be our September guest speakers.  Jeff has left the news to start his own public relations firm http://www.realnewspr.com/ .  You can watch his announcement at YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xrl7cccTApg.  Dallas has written his first book which is designed to inspire other kids to greatness.  See the information on his book, Kidpreneur below. Kidpreneur--Genius Ways For Kids to Pay Their Way Through College by Dallas Crilley (Paperback - Jul 19, 2008)  Available from amazon.com (click on the title to order or see the url below.) $20.00 for a new copy and used copies starting at $13.00 Kidpreneur is a book for kids written by a kid. The tagline on the book is "How to Make a Million Before You Learn to Drive." That's not hype. This short, fun, information-packed book is filled with true stories of kids who built a fortune before they finished high school. 15-year old Dallas Crilley takes readers on a journey of discovery. Kids will find the joy of building a business and saving money for college. This young author strongly believes that if you love what you do, it's not work. Many parents think that making their child get a job in the mall making popcorn is teaching them the value of money. Dallas Crilley disagrees. He thinks all you're doing is crushing their entreprenuerial spirit and teaching them that making a living isn't fun. This 111-page book is filled with true stories of kids who proved that building wealth is child's play. Most kids have had some kind of job at some point in their life, whether it's dog walking, lawn mowing, or babysitting. But it takes a special kind of drive to turn those jobs from just another way to make burger money into a successful business. This book helps inspire kids to stop wasting away their youth playing video games all day or chatting with friends on the computer. If you're a child, prepare to be changed. And if you're a parent or grandparent, get ready to smile with pride at the sudden burst of motivation that special child in your life finds after breezing through this book. About the Author 15-year old Dallas Crilley is a budding entrepreneurial superstar and much sought after motivational speaker. When finished with his homework, you can usually find him out speaking to groups of all ages on how to inspire the next generation to greatness. Visit his book site at www.kidpreneurclub.com
