Baquet Raffles

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

There is a banquet coming up for Southeast Cincinnati Young Life that I am helping with.  They are a non-profit organization that I am working with to create some raffle tickets for them to use at the banquet for different types of free Young Life things like a YL blanket, YL t-shirt, YL bumper sticker, etc.  I am excited about this opportunity because I think that the way that they are giving out the raffle tickets is really creative.

Before the banquet starts they are going to have a 30 minutes 50′s themed game time where guest can travel around to different stations and play games to earn raffle tickets.  At some stations they will be able to earn more than others, depending on the difficulty of the game.  After the game time is over, the guests will be ushered into the actual banquet hall where Young Life will start its presentation.  Before the banquet starts, the guests will be asked to write there name on the tickets they earned and then turn them in to the door host.  At the end of banquet, they will draw tickets to give away the prizes.

I think that they will also be selling raffle tickets for gift cards and vacations and what not to help them earn some extra money.  Banquets are usually such an intimidating place to be as a guest, but I think Young Life really strives to make it a fun experience and make sure their guests feel comfortable being there.
