Tournament
Fundraising Raffle
Travel Teams may participate in the tournament raffle as a fundraising
event. It's a great way to earn some money to help defray the costs of
your other tournaments. This can be a group project or be done by several
individuals. (Intiation/House/Recreation
members don't have to participate, but you are welcome to!)
Your team can participate by donating:
1) assembled "theme" baskets and
2) single larger-dollar items.
Baskets of goods should be valued at an approx. minimum of $30, as
should individual items. Themes can be geared toward adults or children -
in addition to adults, lots of players and siblings bought tickets last year.
Most of you and your team parents have seen raffle baskets at other sporting
events. For our newer members, examples of raffle items could be:
Game basket - board games,
puzzle, yo-yo, deck of cards
Wine & cheese - bottle of
wine, wine glasses, decorative corks, cheese board
Play poker basket - poker
chips, cards, how-to play poker book, snacks/candy
Stay warm at the game basket -
hat, scarf, gloves, hot cocoa mix, hand warmers
Golf; bath & body; scrapbooking; teen hair & nails...
New hockey stick
Cornell hockey hoodie...just about anything you can imagine. If you
can get items donated,
that's all the better; otherwise your team members
cover the purchases.
The more items to raffle the better - we're not charging admission, so
spectators will love to buy raffle tickets!!!
Let
Matt Ulinski know if you have questions or if you
know you are putting together a basket or providing a significant item, mattulinski@yahoo.com, 257-5600
