Exciting day at JA Camp Startup today with Member of Parliament Peter Fragiskatos stopping by to visit our Camp Market at London's Covent Garden Market. He learned a little more about Junior Achievement and offered some great advice along the way!

Just one more summer camp market left, and it's next Thursday. Stop on by to see what our future entrepreneurs are up to.
