4.6 NPSW Event – Cupcakes and information booths
NPSW – Thoughts that a BBQ is a better bang for the buck as opposed to cupcakes. Will do BBQ by library downtown. Event will take place the same week as the ER events. Carm will do some research into costing for BBQ/Cupcakes/Cakes to see which option is better (see below). Dead line for volunteers is May 20th.
BBQ - $3.00/dog or burger. 1500 units = $4725
Cake – 96 pieces/slab @$49.99 each. 16 cakes X $49.99 = $799.84
Cupcakes - $9.99/dozen X 125 dozen = $1248.75 Cake/ cupcakes from Safeway’s
June 11th is the day of the event.
