Re: Perhaps my craziest fundraising idea yet!

Another pretty radical fundraiser could involve Poop-Pool

Find a field or so and divite it into as many squares as possible and give each square coordinates. (B4 we C2 to....)

Get a well fed dog, or some sort of animal.

the object of this game is to guess which square the dog will poop in.

You sell squares to people for X amount of dollars and the winner wins some pre-set amount (percentage of proceeds are especially attractive).

Remember to set rules should the dog poop on a line, poop while walking, etc.


Plane Pull

Look for some sort of heavy vehicle or something similar, your robot could work here.

Charge an entry fee for people/teams.
Make people bet as to who would get
  • Fastest Pull
  • Longest distance
  • Best efficiency. (total weight of person or team divided by distance covered per minute.)
  • etc.

the winner will get some sort of prize (could be somethign like an ipod, laptop, etc.)

Helps spread the word, and help move cars without wasting gas
