🌟 West Central MN CEO — Weekly Highlights! 🌟

What a week of learning, connection, and community impact!

🍽️ Tour & Conversation with Brett Almich
A huge thank-you to Brett Almich, owner of Almich’s Market in Clara City, Granite Falls, and Slayton. Brett shared the real story behind finding his path, overcoming uncertainty, and eventually stepping into leadership within a thriving family business. His honesty and insight gave our students a powerful reminder: your journey doesn’t have to be a straight line to be successful.

🤝 Mentor–Mentee Mixer at Southern Minnesota Beet Sugar Cooperative
On Friday, our students connected with their mentors for the first time at the SMBSC. This event is one of the most meaningful pieces of our program—pairing students with local leaders who will guide, challenge, and support them as they grow as young entrepreneurs.

We’re incredibly grateful for our community partners who invest in the next generation. 💙
