Reviews
"Such a beautiful place for youth to explore. I had a wonderful time as a chaperone/ volunteer. The place is clean and well-lit. The receptionist is kind, welcoming, and informative. The meeting room for volunteers was spacious and had comfortable chairs. My daughter loved working at JA BizTown and continues to talk about how much fun she had learning about her business."
"Our daughter participated in this year's JA Miss Business workshop, which was a breakthrough experience for her today. JA of the Bluegrass has excellent opportunities for students to gain education, hands-on experience, and mentorship for business, community leadership, and entrepreneurship. Their programs prepare young people to make valuable contributions to their communities and society at large as adults. Most programs are free, thanks to sponsors from the business community. So thankful for this awesome resource here in our community!"
"Recently volunteered here with my sons class. What a great hands on experience for them(and the volunteers)! He could not quit talking about it. It was so fun to watch several of the students in my group really understand their role and take over never needing any direction from me. I highly recommend the experience."
"This is a good learning experience. Doesn't give very good directions to the volunteers and some of the kids are hard to understand. The kids learned a lot once everyone knew what to do."
"Place was great if you have kids from the grades of 5 to 8th it is a really cool experience, check out there pictures of there facility. Your child in 5th grade can work for Toyota for a day. Awesome I would give them 6 stars if I could"
