A great way to raise funds and team build is to organize a fundraiser for your team.
There are so many things out there...where do you start? Well we have compiled a list of ideas to share with our teams:

Do you have something people want?
Great ideas are Costco Gift certificates, liquor basket raffles, cash prizes) sports
memorabilia. Sell raffle tickets are very simple ways of making money.
You can ask local businesses for donations for prizes such as Oilers tickets, or maybe you know a current or past NHLer who would be willing to donate some memorabilia.

Pub/Game Night Fundraiser- Game nights/pub nights are usually for the parents, but can also be arranged to include children. First you need a location. Consider hosting at a restaurant where they might donate portions of profits back to your team, or a bowling alley, where you can all partake in the fun! You could use a hall, and have pot luck, or get it catered. At game nights/pub nights you can have silent auctions, casino games, loonie stick draw, or just hang out and play darts, crib, or pool. This is another great chance for parents to “hang out” away from the arena.

Hockey Pool Fundraiser- Do you know someone willing to look after a hockey pool, or a Grey Cup pool? Hockey pools are fun ways to be “competitive” with your friends, and there are websites now that, once you pick your team, keep things automatically updated with the latest stats.
