Besides writing many grants and getting some corporate sponsors, our best fundraisers are dances. This past week we had our annual town "festival" and we built mini robots and did a battle bot booth. We came up with a very simple game and you could play for two minutes for a dollar. It went well. We also set our robot at the booth with a can on it. We made about $80 in a day and a half just with donations in the can!
(I also want to say that our float that we entered in the parade won TWO prizes!! Now that was exciting!)
