Waves!


Thank you Waves!
Thank you for being open 24-hours a day!
Thank you for being willing to provide coffee for us in the middle of the night!

We are so thankful for all of the vendors who are willing to help us out as we work hard on CreateAthon! We want to provide the best work we possibly can, and that wouldn't be possible without our awesome donors!

They're EdgeCeptional!

Yay! We won't starve while we work! EdgeCeptional Catering has graciously offered to provide dinner for us. If you haven't tried their salads and sandwiches, you are missing out! I personally recommend the baby spinach, strawberry, mandarin oranges, and goat cheese salad topped with maple glazed pecans, raspberry rosemary vinaigrette, and a breast of salmon on top. Oh my goodness, it’s incredible!

Did you know that they do catering, as well as serve food in their restaurant! Swing by for a lunch one day. You won’t be disappointed! They are located at 2450 Yukon Street, Vancouver.

Thank you awesome people at EdgeCatering (especially you Judy!)

Check them out! http://edgecatering.ca/

BONCHAZ!


That's all you need to say around here to get people excited. We love this place. Great food, great drinks, and great people. What's not to love? But just incase that doesn't sell you on how great they are, how about that fact that they have kindly offered to donate to our big event! That's right folks, those yummy baked goods, delicious sandwiches, and of course that amazing Vegan Chilli will help us make it through our 24 hour CreateAthon. We need to focus, and we can't do that without the support of great people. We bow to you Bonchaz and thank you for helping us help great people.


Now, if for some strange reason you have never been to this great place go! You can find out more info at http://www.facebook.com/bonchaz or follow them on Twitter @bonchaz, or just pop in for lunch at 426 W Hastings St, Vancouver. You wont be disappointed. 


All this Bonchaz talk is making me hungry... avocado and brie sandwich, with vegan chilli? Oh I think so.
