Do you bring your own pasta to a pasta dinner fund raiser?

For our pasta night, everyone brings in home made foods, and than we charge people by the person as they come into the area and they pay and than they can eat. Also we have a few raffles here and there. We make alot of money because the parents of the people in the team come and they bring in their families so they dont have to cook that night.

Last year the pasta was donated by the pasta factory but since hurricane wilma hit south florida they told us no due to lack of funding . This year we decided that all the parents were going to bring something and then we pay to get in. It works we have made lots of money with the spaghetti dinner. This year we are hosting it after regionals though.

Please read the first post in this thread carefully. It is not really about a pasta dinner - Bob was just asking if you would bring your meal that you purchased somewhere else, into someone's fundraiser? There may be valid reasons for doing so - dietary restrictions or food allergies, for example. Or maybe you weren't made aware that the host team was paying the cost of holding the scrimmage through the food sales, which you would have supported had you known.

Kathie,
Thank you for clarifying what I was trying to say.
