A 10-year-old girl doesn't mind breaking a sweat if it means she can cool down with a new air-conditioning unit.
Kaitlyn Chiles and her friend, 11-year-old Kaity Tracy, are selling lemonade and fruit punch on the corner of West Bedford Road and Norwood Drive to help Kaitlyn's parents pay for a new A/C unit.
"It broke down, so, I'm like, 'Well, since y'all don't have a lot of money, I'm going to just help out,'" Kaitlyn said. "So even if my parents say no, I'm going to help out."
"We have a smaller one in the back but, yeah, we've been a hot house since over the weekend," said Janel Chiles, the girl's mother.
A small glass goes for 50 cents, and a large glass sells for $1.
Customers who stop by the booth said they are proud of the girls' entrepreneurial spirit.
"That's a kid that's working for her money," Gilbert Dias said.
