I know I'm opening this up for a lot of abuse but if I get one good idea, it will be worth it.
As you may well know, my son made the Division II Soccer Team. This is a big deal and we are really excited about it. This past Wed. we had a parent meeting and I was appointed to Fund Raising Chair.
When we discussed the cost involved, some of the parents really had a scared look. I'll admit that it may be a slim Christmas this year unless I come up a way to offset some of these cost. We have uniform, travel, coach, and tournament fees.
So any brilliant ideas would be much appreciated.
So far I have come up with this....
Several local eateries offer 10% of sales from 5-close. This is easy money with nothing lost.
A raffle for a gun. Its almost gun season for deer so I think this will go well.
Set up a radar gun at the fields and clock how fast the kids can kick the ball. Put up a board with the winners from each age group during the day. Pay $1 for 3 kicks.
