Each year in Bend, Oregon, the ski season kicks off with
the Annual Skyliners Ski Swap, a fundraiser for the Mt. Bachelor Ski Education
Foundation (MBSEF). Attendees can sell and buy used and new alpine and cross
country ski equipment, snowboards, winter clothing, ice skates and other
winter recreational items. A 25% commission for each product sold and
a $3 admission fee benefits MBSEF.
A similar event could be held in your area to defray equipment and uniform
costs for most any sport or activity.
We have included a number of do-it-yourself fundraising ideas in this
section such as an Equipment Swap that offer a break from
traditional product sales. They were developed by groups just
like yours in an attempt have a little fun with their fundraiser. Some
of them are tried and true while others show a lot of creativity ...
and even wackiness in some cases. All of them are obviously not
appropriate for every group, but sometimes, with only a little
modification, your might find some fund raising ideas that are perfect
for your group. If you have an idea for a do-it-yourself fund raiser
you are willing to share with others, please send it to us via email

Include anything
and everything you would want to know if you were hearing the idea for
the first time.
