we're starting fund raising this year, and have gone old school- working the concession stands at local events.

That seems like it would take a lot of effort.

We did sell 41 bags of 36 lollipops each in just over a day and a half though.

Well, the amount needed also depends on how far your team goes or how many teams you have. Does your team make it to state or nationals? I also know that my coach is in charge of 4 teams... would this money be spread amongst one team or several?

any ideas for fundraising besides bake sales?

we did a bake sale last year, we only earned about 90 dollars :(

And I'm not sure how much fundraising we need, we go to states, but we have never made it to nationals

it's only our teams 3rd year

and we usually place 8th in states

there's one team from my state who goes to nationals every year
