Thirsty? Two lemonade stands for you

As part of our Lemonade Brigade, we're letting you know when Charlotte-area kids operate lemonade stands for charity.

Thisty? Here's a lemonade stand for charity in the Myers Park/Dilworth area.: Neighborhood children on Somerset Drive (parallel to Park Road and between Lilac Road and Princeton Avenue) will be selling homemade strawberry lemonade Friday from 4-6 p.m.

Stop by on your way home from work for a refreshing drink - or a popsicle. All proceeds will benefit A Child's Place.

A reminder: 6-year-old Finn Rissanen, who previously offered lemonade stand tips for Cliff readers, will be operating a stand today in his front yard at 9109 Kalanchoe Dr in the Sardis Pointe subdivision off Sardis Road, a half-mile north of Hwy 51.

Tell us about a lemonade stand you’re planning, and we’ll give parched readers a nudge your way by publicizing your stand’s location in the Observer and on CharlotteObserver.com.
When you’re through, send us pictures (or, if you’re ambitious, a YouTube video link), and we’ll publish them, too, along with how much money your children raised and which agency they’ll be giving it to.

Is the lemonade stand on Somerset today or Friday? I had copied and pasted your post for friends and originally it said Friday. Did you edit?

It's Friday on Somerset. I must have dropped that accidentally. Sorry for the confusion.
