Taste of Augsburg Booth Registration

Are you a student group, athletic team or campus department wanting to take part in community fun and Homecoming festivities on Sept. 24? Register for your booth at Taste of Augsburg where you can raise money and awareness of what you do while interacting with alumni, students, and friends of the College! As a "vendor" groups are encouraged to sell a product (food items, pompoms, etc) or a service (carnival game, face painting, etc). Groups are responsible for the cost of the product and/or service, but any profit that is made above the initial investment is yours to keep. If your group doesn't want to "sell" anything, but wants to participate that's OK too!

Visit www.augsburg.edu/homecoming/students to register for a booth or get more information. Please send completed forms to Katie Radford in Alumni Relations (radford@augsburg.edu) by Friday, September 16, 2016.

Also, student groups and athletic teams, the application for seed money is due this Friday, Sept. 2. The link can be found on the attachment for more information on the website above.
