For five years these young neighbors have been manning a lemonade stand during Shelburne's Fiddleville. This year the happy clan decided to try it out during Canada day. A small business of sorts called LENNKS, (made from the first  letter in each young person's name) when asked what these kids will do with their takings, they revealed some would go into their treasury, some would be divided evenly and some day they may even have enough money saved to take an ad in the Shelburne Free Press announcing their event!( Front: L to R) Lauren King, 9, Sarah Bannon, 11, Ella Cruikshank, 8, Kayla Cruikshank, 12. Back: (L to R) Nicholas Bannon, 14, and Noah Cruikshank 14.

When you are cute, you're cute! Eight month old Jason Hiscock didn't know what was happening when he posed with his very cute faced 5 year old sister Emmery Haigh, 5. He'll like the picture when he's older!
