Short Talk 152 (Listen and Read)

Before the benefit concert starts,

I'd like to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone here.

Your support for the Brookfield Community Center means a lot.

Our facilities have been in need of repairs for quite a while now.

So far, we've raised $6000 from ticket sales,

but we're still short of our target.

During the concert, I encourage you to buy snacks and beverages from the concession stand.

Eighty percent of the profits will go towards renovations at the Brookfield Community Center.

Enjoy the performance!
