CountAgranoff Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Thank you to everyone who supported the Try Vegan week Karokee fundraiser. If you were there and survived Robert Cheeke's history making take on Kiss and seeing Peter from NWveg sing Billie Jean you'll know it was fun and we made over $300. So Yeah thanks! Now the bad news...The temptation Soy ice cream has been shipped from Chicago but it will not be here in time for the event this Saturday. We're calling Saturday off but don't fear we will be selling temptation at both days of Vegfest! Proceeds going to Try Vegan Week. So head on down to Vegfest May 9th and 10th and Bensen High school and pick up all you can eat vegan ice cream! Prices: $5.00 Waffle cones with toppings. $3.00 a bowl $10.00 all you can eat. www.portlandvegfest.org The Try vegan Week reading event fundraiser is still set for Sunday night at 7 PM at the Red and Black Cafe. Help us Spread the word! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Dudes, I passed out tons of post cards at Last Thursday! There were at least 4 or 5 vegan booths there...maybe way more, but those are the ones I saw during my short 90 minutes there. Got people pumped about it and even talked to people who are already signed up for the Prom! This is going to rock my ass! Portland is back on top leading the progressive vegan movement!

robert Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Yeah, I wish I had more cards.....for real, at least 5 vegan booths were there and they helped pass out cards too, and it was funny to bump into people who already plan on coming to Prom!

VeganGirl2006 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Tell me something all you fellow Portlanders. this grocery store called food fight... It's such a wonderful name and so catchy. With all the events they support and such, do they ever sponsor actual FOOD FIGHTS!???? I think a nice vegan food fight would be something I would most certainly have to come to portland specifically for (and to see you guys of course). And man, if it it was bring your own food rules, I think i'd be throwing massive amounts of algae ALL OVER If people start throwing apples and potatoes and other hard things such as those, I would be ascared Me too Marcina! I'll be the one throwing applesauce and bananas or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
