(Versailles, Ind.) - Hard work pays off.

Last summer, Versailles native Grace Stratton became a vendor at Market on the Square with a goal to raise money to go to space camp.

Stratton accomplished her goal by selling homemade dog treats. Earlier this week, she arrived at space camp in Alabama.

"She was so excited to go to camp and is very thankful for all the market shoppers who bought her dog treats! The entrepreneurial spirit has taken root, and Grave has continued to sell her dog treats at the market this summer. We can't wait to hear all about her experience at space camp when she's back! Way to go, Grace," reads a statement from Main Street Versailles.
