Re: RAGE Pasta Diner

One of my other youth organizations does a pasta dinner every year and we typically pull in ~$1200.
However, we also run an associated Chinese Raffle with donations solicited from local businesses, we get food donated from a local grocer, and the hall belongs to our sponsor. The only real expense is the purchase of several small items to round out the raffle baskets and one big ticket item to increase outside raffle sales.

Another note: We cook outside using big propane burners. Originally the burners were borrowed from the local fire dept., but we eventually purchased our own, so that was an additional one-time expense. They also get stored in my garage, so I had to give up some personal space too.

P.S. Did RAGE get a good turnout?
