Rock-A-Thon Fundraiser

Our youth group did a Rock A Thon.  Each student asked for pledges from friends, family and neighbors to see how long they could rock in a rocking chair &  playing video games.  The kids had to bring their own rocking chairs or gaming chairs that rocked.  They also were allow to bring their own non-violent video games and systems to play. The school supplied the TV’s and electoral cords.  We raised over $2,000 with this A-Thon and the kids loved it. As the night went on we had terminals with different games and WII matches all for silly prizes. We made a minimum pledge of $25, so the kids understood it wasn’t just a free night of video games.  Really easy to set up. It was a win/win night.  (Source: Anonymous)
