Eat gourmet soup, buy bowl, raise funds

Published 5:00 am Sunday, October 15, 2006

Tickets for the fifth annual Empty Bowls Fundraiser are on sale.

The event, to be held Nov. 12 at the Bend Golf and Country Club, features a meal of gourmet soup, served in an artful hand-thrown bowl that the purchaser keeps. The event is a fundraiser for NeighborImpact, formerly known as COCAAN, and also includes live music and a raffle.

Three seatings are scheduled, at 11 a.m., 12:15 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.

Tickets are $16. Advance purchase is recommended because previous Empty Bowls events have sold out, according to the event’s press release.
