//<span style="color: #808080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Carson Ackerman pitches his and Amanda Bartel's idea to the dragons at Peacock on Wednesday morning. The dragons were (L-R) Jillian Bilawchuk, Joel Pinel, Krista Hauser and Colin Young. //


 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Peacock gets entrepreneurs and students together **

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: cassiabold,serif; font-size: 12pt;">No Peacock students were burnt in the dragon’s den.

<span style="color: #3e464d; font-family: cassiabold,serif; font-size: 12pt;">Other news

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">“I was very impressed with the ideas,” said Colin Young from Agrocorp. “There was a wide variety. It wasn’t every kid wanting to sell a button.”

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">He said the students of the entrepreneurship class at Peacock Collegiate could all take their unique ideas and make businesses in their own right.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">On Wednesday morning, teacher Tana Rowe had a classroom on the second floor converted into a dragon’s den.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The format followed that of CBC’s popular TV show: aspiring entrepreneurs pitched their ideas to four business experts.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Aside from Young, the four other dragons were Krista Hauser from Main Event Bridal Shoppe and Wedding Planning, Joel Pinel from Wow Factor Media and Jillian Bilawchuk from Jillian’s Design Elements.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">All four were happy to be a part of encouraging business in a new generation.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">“Not everybody has that drive and that ambition,” said Hauser. “So when you see a good idea, you see their brains working and then our brains start working, it’s kind of exciting.”

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Bilawchuk said the students and the dragons were feeding off each other. She and Hauser are Peacock alumni. Though Pinel isn’t, he still was appreciative of the opportunity to give back to the community.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">“It’s nice to be able to help because we were helped. We love business and we want to see more people start businesses,” Pinel said.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Students pitched ideas as diverse as clay art, phone cases, chalkboards and cookbooks. They only had about a week to prepare.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Grade 12 student Amanda Bartel had been watching the Dragon’s Den and brainstorming for ideas.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">“I really like cooking and baking,” Bartel said. “My grandma always put together little cookbooks. So I was thinking, everybody likes their grandma’s food.”

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">A compilation of gradmothers’ recipes was enough to interest the panel of dragons, especially because of how much research Bartel and her partner, Carson Ackerman, put into potential profits.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Bartel and Ackerman had crunched the numbers and found a cheap way to print the books, and business partnerships would create some cash-on-hand.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">They said they weren’t nervous about walking into the dragon’s den.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">“It felt really good. I felt it went fairly well. I thought we pitched pretty well,” Ackerman said.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">He said all the criticism was constructive and was meant to improve the ideas.

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">“It was really nice. They were really friendly about it. They didn’t have anything bad to say,” Bartel said.
