Loyal-InvestWrite Winner Announced (Olson - 2022)



Loyal High School senior Kaden Olson proudly displays the certificate that was awarded to him March 30 for his winning InvestWrite essay entry, which earned him first place in the Wisconsin Stock Market Game InvestWrite Challenge. In his essay, Olson wrote about what he learned about investing through participating in The Stock Market Game in his investing class, how he could use that knowledge and how he would invest $100,000 to perform over the next 30 years. Olson was selected at the state level by financial professionals that read through the entries. Olson’s investing class is part of Loyal’s financial literacy program made possible by the Draper Hills Financial Literacy Endowment Fund, established by Loyal Native Dr. Eldon Hill. The Eau Claire Community Foundation (ECCF) manages the fund. Shown here are school district administrator Chris Lindner, ECCF executive director Sue Bornick, Olson and Loyal financial literacy teacher Jessica Zarnke. The InvestWrite Challenge is a program of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Foundation. Jesse Heslip/Clark County Press
