On the day of the Reality Store, the students first visited a bank to deposit their income. From there they visited the different area community business tables to spend their salary on the necessities and luxuries they envisioned as part of their adult lifestyle. Students also had to visit the chance cardtable. Chance cards were those unexpected items that affect our daily lives.

Area businesses represented were as follows: Haring Realty, Sluss Realty, Re/Max, Graham’s Auto Mall, Mansfield Motor Group, Richland Bank, Directions Credit Union, First Federal, CHASE bank, Gary Feagin State Farm Insurance, Brian and Michelle Gates State Farm Insurance, Meijer’s, Time Warner, Century Link, AAA Travel Agency, RoadHouse, Papa’s Gondola, Team Chitwood, Happy Time Childcare, Child Care Choices, Dr. Julie Beard, NEXGen,United Way, Ohio Air National Guard, Mayor Collins, and Ontario School Resource Officer, Adam Gongwer. Eight grade teachers also helped by representing different booths such as dentist, clothing, gasoline, utilities, beauty, and movie theatre.
