If not maybe we could organize one. It is great weather now and we could get sponsors, etc.

Definitely would be interested in a walk a thon or something like that.

There was a thread a while back where people talked about getting baskets donated and doing a silent auction type thing. I would also be interested in something like that as well!

I think a chinese auction is such a huge money maker, and not that hard to do. Our swim group does one and people buy A LOT of tickets. You just make up the baskets, display them on a table. You sell tickets at the auction (can be bought at Party City), the person puts their ticket in the bucket in front of the prize they want to win. A couple of hours later, you draw the winning tickets, winner goes home with basket.

You could also sell refreshments, etc. If someone is affiliated with a church, they are usually more than welcome to donate their community space for events like this.
