It is Time to Shake Up This Year’s Fall Fundraiser

Fall is in the air, and it’s the time to begin planning your fall fundraiser. With cooler temperatures approaching, a variety of activities become available! If you’re stuck on ideas, let the experts in Orlando event management at Fun Planners give you some ideas for your fall festivities so everyone can have a great time.

  • Pumpkin Faces: Shake up the traditional pumpkin carving tradition by letting your team paint each other’s faces to look like pumpkins. You could order orange, green, and black face paint, along with paintbrushes and disposable cups. Consider incentives for having the funniest or the most interesting painted faces.
  • Drive-in Movie Night: This event can be made possible by placing a video projector and a large screen or sheet in your parking lot in the evening. Play the classic “The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” movie to get your team in the fall spirit. This is also great for families with young children because the movie is just about half an hour. Make sure to tell everyone to bring blankets or pillows if they’d like to watch it in the outdoors.
  • Chili Cook-Off: Spice up your fundraiser with a chili cook-off competition. Arrange different categories such as “Best In Show” or “Most Popular.” Tickets can be sold to competitors and samplers. The best chili can be rewarded with a trophy and bragging rights.
  • Pumpkin Trebuchet: Throwing pumpkins will never be the same with the trebuchet, a device used for launching heavy objects. Have your team build their very own trebuchet by following directions by WikiHow. As your team builds their own trebuchet, teamwork and trust are being applied. Find an open field that you are allowed to use, and host a competition on who may launch pumpkins the farthest!
