I just had to post this because I think the councilman deserves to be embarrassed by this. He says he called the cops instead of just telling the boys they needed a license to sell the cupcakes in the park, because he wasn't sure how to handle it.
I call bs on that. Having the police handle a cupcake stand is completely ridiculous.
NEW CASTLE When Andrew DeMarchis and Kevin Graff, two 13-year-olds from Chappaqua's Seven Bridges Middle School, set up shop at Gedney Park on a fall weekend last month, they were expecting a tidy profit.
Instead, the two wannabe entrepreneurs selling cupcakes, cookies, brownies and Rice Krispie treats baked by them for $1 apiece got a taste of cold, hard bureaucracy .
New Castle Councilman Michael Wolfensohn came upon the sale and called the cops on the kids for operating without a license.
