Think you have the entrepreneurial savvy to enter the lair and come out with some of the tools needed to get a business off the ground?
Then enter the Dino Den.
To help get residents thinking about business, and have a little fun, the Town and some partners are hosting the first Drumheller Dino’s Den. Potential entrepreneurs will have a chance to pitch a business proposal to a panel in hopes of some support to get their business off the ground.
“I would like to keep the criteria very simple so basically the only obligation the winner will have is to open a business within the municipality of Drumheller,” said Mayor Terry Yemen.
As a prize for the best proposal, the mayor has committed $1,000 from the Town of Drumheller. Community Futures Big Country, Chinook Credit Union and the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce have all come to the table with $1,000. In addition, Drum FM has committed $1,000 worth of advertising, Chinook Credit Union is offering one-year of free banking, the Chamber is offering a one year membership and the Town of Drumheller will offer a one year business license.
“We are sending the message out that we are open for business and having some fun at the same time,” said Yemen.
