Vida Vegan Conference Ticket Giveaway
As I mentioned a while ago, I’m attending the 2013 Vida Vegan Conference (VVC) in Portland this May. What is the VVC, you might be wondering? Founded by the lovely Janessa, Michele, and Jess it’s 3 days of seminars, talks, food, fun (duh), and exhibitors all with a vegan twist. And of course, we’ll be prowling the vegan-friendly streets of Portland along the way. This will be my first time visiting Portland and as you can expect I am beyond excited. I might pee my pants actually.
When is it? The VVC 2013 will be held on Friday-Sunday, May 24-26, 2013.
Where? Portland Art Museum, 1219 Southwest Park Avenue Portland, OR 97205
Is there a schedule break down for each day? Why I’m so happy you asked. For the complete VVC schedule see here.
Recently, a reader named Grace contacted me explaining that she bought a ticket to this year’s VVC, but is sadly not able to attend anymore. And because of her super generous heart she’s offering the ticket to one lucky reader! Yes, you have the chance of winning a ticket valued at $280.00 for 3 days of conference fun! If you think you can make it, please leave a comment below to enter this contest.
Please note that the winner will be responsible for all travel, food expenses, and accommodation costs incurred. This giveaway is for the conference pass only. I will select the winner from the comments via a random number generator and the contest will be open until Tuesday March 12th. The winner will be announced right here on the blog next week! Keep your eyes peeled.

It would be a dream to attend!

Oh my goodness, going to this would be so fantastic! Not only would going to the conference be great, but I’d love to check Portland out!
I would LOVE to attend this!! I need to meet more fellow vegan foodies :)
I’d love an excuse to fly out from Virginia to see this event, and visit old friends from my Lewis & Clark College days after the fun. But whomever wins might have a less expensive time of it if they live closer. What a generous and fun idea. Thanks!
If I win, I may pee my pants as well.

Oh my gosh! I would love to attend this conference! I literally just gave up all animal products for Lent (I’ve been doing great so far, and hope to continue it after Easter, as well) and because I’m so new at it, I can use all the help I can get. Knowledge is power!
And to make it even more perfect, my sister moved to Portland a year and a half ago so I’d have a place to stay!
