Richmond SOUP #1

Join us for the launch of Richmond SOUP, a community gathering of good causes, good food and good people. This event is about neighbours getting together to connect with one another, and support grassroots ideas and projects in their local area.

------------------------------------------------------

Attendees register for a ticket and hear 3 presentations on ideas or projects based in Richmond. Everyone enjoys a bowl of soup and some live entertainment, while voting for one of the presentations. The presenter who receives the most votes takes home part of the money raised from ticket sales, and returns to the next SOUP event to update us on their progress.

The format is simple; 

THREE minute presentations, on 

THREE projects based in Richmond, followed by 

THREE questions from the audience.

------------------------------------------------------

This is a *Pay As You Feel* event, we have a range of available ticket options. If you can, please consider helping us support community projects in Richmond and ongoing SOUP events:

$0 = General admission
$5 = Cover event costs
$10 = Cover costs & $5 to presenter pot
$15 = Cover costs & $10 to presenter pot
$20 = $10 to cover costs & $10 to presenter pot

For example if 25 attendees buy the $15 ticket, that will contribute $250 to the winner's pot.

Please note: this event has a maximum capacity of 50 people, and we expect to sell out, so grab your tickets ASAP!

Also: this is an alcohol free event. Please do not bring any alcohol.

------------------------------------------------------
