Each week, a different local business from our small town, would give a task. An example would be, our local floral shop made each group create a sign for their business, the team with the "best" sign won for that week. This continued for 8 weeks. We had to learn how to use all of our resources, and we discovered having your own business isn't as easy as we thought. Whoever had the most wins at the end of the 8 weeks, won the apprentice project, and everyone else was fired.:)
