As a fundraiser in the fall, Los Pollos Locos built a Rube Goldberg machine--friends, coworkers, and family sponsored us based on how many transitions we could work into the machine in one day:

We also planned our own off-season event starting last year in SCRIW.

If you're looking to build something, I'd suggest looking at CD-Media for inspiration. Using CAD software, the wisdom of what you can build, and the help of your mentors, you should be able to build something as practice for next season.
