Just wondering what clubs do for outside fund raisers, we currently do a $100 raffle and in the past have done food stands and chili feeds, but we are looking for another way to raise extra funds, what do think?
we do a banquet. charge a fee per plate. Along with the banquet we do live auctions, raffles, 50/50, and have a couple bigger raffles (gun/bow/purse for the ladies). other fundraising during the year, but our big event is the banquet.
raffle - 10k to 15k in prizes. Double your money at least. Prizes are donated or purchased by the club.
Partnering with a local bank has allowed us to buy a sled for the first place prize.

We are a new snowmobile club so still working these things out as we go. Alger Sorva
Our focus has been on mopping up years and years of neglect of the trail system.
We know fund raising has to become more of a priority.
We do a truck and tractor pull. Lots of work, but a lot of fun as well! They key is getting the sponsorship as we don't turn huge profit from the actual event!
