USU Eastern student and SUN Center President, Shanna Frame of Bountiful who is in charge of the event, notes that, “We always get such a good feeling when we plan and prepare for this worthy event.

Members of Eastern’s dining service staff, under the direction of Becky Archibald, volunteer their time each Monday to create three delicious soups. Archibald works diligently to make soups that accommodate a variety of dietary needs and indicates that “in addition to a vegetarian choice each week, on Nov. 5 and 19, we are even serving a gluten-free option.” Traditional favorites, like chicken noodle and cream of potato, are on the menu again this year, but Frame suggests that attendees should also watch for a fun new option or two.
All are welcome to attend between 5 and 6:30 p.m. in the Multi-Purpose Room of the Jennifer Leavitt Student Center. Prices are $6 for adults and students 15 and over, $4 for students 5 – 14. Children 5 and under are admitted free. For the price of admission, each person will receive two tickets, good toward one bowl of soup apiece, with children 5 and under receiving one ticket. Additional tickets may be purchased for $2 per bowl.
In 2011, as a result of Bread ‘N Soup Night, USU-Eastern donated $3,811.21 to the Carbon County Food Bank, making the grand total over its 13 years to more than $32,000.
