We’ve had so many people ask how they can help…..here are some ways:
1) Attend the benefit!
2) Help work at the benefit, selling tickets, monitoring the silent auction, etc.
3) Donate raffle prizes
4) We are asking for interested race teams to donate a “Team Bucket”. Decorate it with your team number and colors. Inside it place things that represent your team (or just things you think people would want). Ideas include:
-foods you like
-a gift certificate to have lunch WITH YOU at your favorite restaurant (or drinks at your favorite pub)
-tickets to a sporting event, movies, etc.
-handmade items (always popular!!)
-gift certificates
Don’t forget to include a team T-shirt, hat, or Speed Card!
