Fastpitch Talk Radio & Fundraising

Hey, just dropping in to let you know that I just put up a new episode of Fastpitch Talk Radio. This episode is about reducing parent conflict and about how to reduce your stress during the season by preparing better.

Listen in, it's free! Just go to www.FastpitchTalkRadio.com.


Now, on to fundraising...

There has been quite a bit of talk about fundraising recently. You may even be looking for some cool fundraising ideas. Sooooo, I have 2 fundraising ideas for you.

1. Raffle off gas cards
Pretty self eplanatory: buy gas cards and raffle them off. I'd probably stick with $50 cards.

2. Do a Dessert Tasting
This weekend I was at a "end of the season" potluck and there were some delicious desserts! I thought it would be cool to do a "dessert tasting" fundraiser. Now, keep in mind, I've never done one before, but I think it would be soooooo cool. Have families make their favorite desserts (or see if you can have local bakeries or stores donate a dessert or two) and have a dessert tasting or dessert buffet fundraiser. I'm sure you could charge a flat rate at the door for "all you can eat" OR charge per dessert tasted/eaten. Be creative and think of ways to make it fun and enjoyable for everyone. I'm sorry, but I just loooooove good old sweet tasting desserts! I know I'd certainly make it a point to attend a dessert fundraiser. If you need some easy dessert recipes for ideas, check out www.MyEasyDessertRecipes.com. It's a project my daughter is working on and she's about to post some VERY simple fruit dessert ideas later this week.
