Chuck a Puck Fundraiser

This fund raiser is done at the game, and will not only bring you some money, but should be a crowd pleaser too. To run a chuck a puck fundraiser, you sell numbered pucks at the beginning of the game. Keep track of which puck belongs to whom. This can be done with a ticket system or simply by writing this information down. At the end of the second period, invite everyone who purchased a puck to throw it into the rink. The person whose puck comes closest to the center of he rink wins half of the money raised by selling the pucks. Anywhere from $1 to $5 is a good price for the pucks, but keep in mind the size of your crowd and what they may be willing to pay in your area. When selling the pucks, be sure to emphasize that the remaining half (after the winner gets the prize) goes back to the team. Source: eHow
