Fund Raiser Fun For All

in #steempress6 years ago (edited)

Cow Chip Fundraisers are a great and fun way to raise money for your school, church, favorite charity or the like.

It usually is the main event and is held on a football or soccer field which is lined off in blocks that are numbered to match raffle tickets that attendees purchase. As attendees keep a watchful eye on where the cow will drop a pie other money-making activities are happening in the near vicinity.

Usually, a pig roast or barbecue is held in conjunction with Cow Chip main event. After all, these viewers can grow pretty hungry as they wait for the magic drop.

There are usually face paintings, horseshoe and ring tosses as well as bake sales in the mix of events. All these bring in their bounty for the fund.

The blocks are priced to bring in a sizable amount of money but are not priced so high that some do not sell. Each area or town knows what will be the best selling price for them.

The total amount raised for the Cow Chip event is usually several thousand dollars of which about half of it goes to the winning ticket. The other concessions' profits are not shared with the raffle ticket winner.

As you can readily see the Cow Chip event along with the bake sale, dinners and games can create a nice sum for your fund raising efforts.
