McKenzie Bronken must make mighty good lemonade: Someone gave her $200 for just one cup.
McKenzie, 10, is a Walnut Elementary School student, a Turlock native and a Type 1 diabetes patient. She's also a fund-raising dynamo for the JDRF, which provides research funding for scientists seeking a cure for diabetes.
She opened a lemonade stand last month and brought in more than $1,800 in three hours, accepting donations in exchange for lemonade ? sugared and sugar-free ? caramel corn, brownies and Rice Krispie treats.
