Zenith in Action presented by Coast Capital Savings can be thought of as Richmond’s version of ‘Dragon’s Den’ for community projects. Come out to watch four teams of young leaders compete with their community project proposal for the chance to win individual scholarships and a grant to bring their idea to life!

This year’s competition will be held on April 28th 2012 at Lansdowne Mall at 12 PM.  Admission is free. All audience members will have the chance to vote for their favourite project idea, and be entered in a raffle to win an iPad 2!
