Business Management at SFHS = FREE Food!

Submitted by seth.spainhower on

Mrs. Whittekiend's Business Management classes were visited by Scott Rasband, owner of the Chick-fil-A restaurant located in Spanish Fork.  Scott very generously provided free chicken sandwiches to his audience and spoke openly about his experience of owning and operating a franchise.  For him, being a franchisee is the "perfect fit" that allows him to own a business, provide for his family, and have more time to do and enjoy the things that truly matter.  "Money isn't everything and enjoying what you do really does matter."
