How about running a clam bake. $50 allows 2 peolpe entry. Serve steamed & raw clams & other food, get a beer truck. Award prizes for tickets drawn. Was always a big fundraiser for our softball tms to help pay for jerseys & tournament fees.

Also we could run a booster event. Tickets cost $100 allowing 4 people into the event. Set up blackjack tables or a dice wheel. Have food & drinks. Award early bird winners 1 per month leading up to the event giving away bigger cash winners at time of the event. We held this at our local high school & they have been doing this going on 34 yrs.

Jeff, thank you for sharing this idea that has been effective at your previous local high school. Unfortunately, due to the guidelines governing HABC insurance policy, we are not allowed to serve alcoholic beverages at any fund raising event. When we have an event designated as an Athletic Boosters Event of any kind, including fund raising, our insurance policy is in effect to cover all matters of injury and accident. If alcohol is on the premise, that coverage is void, so our Executive Board will deny any request for fund raising that includes alcohol.

As well, Wake County schools has determined that schools can't host what they call 'games of chance'. This idea has already been proposed and shot down by the district this current school year.

Coach Kennedy (HHS A.D.) will provide more details about the guidelines for planning and getting approval for fund raisers during the next Heritage Athletic Boosters meeting, on April 9th. Please come if able!
