Camp Bigfoot
From Secret Millionaires Club · 2013
Summary
In this Secret Millionaires Club episode, a summer-camp fundraiser tests the club as they weigh their options and work through a disagreement — learning that solving conflict is part of running any team or business. A ~22-minute animated story that makes a financial-literacy idea easy to drop into a social studies or economics lesson — with investor Warren Buffett as the kids' mentor.
