Love those ideas Jackie and team Tigerlily!
We had a zumbathon this weekend, I got the idea from our very own Jessica! All I really had to do was talk to my friend who is a Zumba instructor and she took care of the rest! She posted on a page for our local Zumba instructors and one girl piped in and said she had the perfect location, and better yet, it was FREE! She also had someone to DJ for us, and the location provided the stage and screen for the video! We advertised on facebook as well as put a few fliers out. We had 65 people sign in, though I suspect there were actually more in attendance. We sold t-shirts, water, and had a silent auction as well as a raffle going on. It was about two hours of zumba and so much fun! Even though I have never done zumba in my life! We raised 1400 with very little effort on our part!

Here's a littel trick that has been working like a charm. For the past few days, I've been posting "random" amounts that I need to raise for my team. The amounts really aren't random because I keep ending up with odd numbers of donations and I'm trying to even them out, but it's working! One day, I posted that I needed to raise $9 and I got $35, one day I posted I needed $23 and got $25. It's been productive. I think when people see small amounts they think "Oh, I can help with that." Anyway, I'm going to keep doing it every once in a while. I'm only $35 from beating last year's total!
And also, I think I need to start doing Zumba to make friends with the instructor.

Haha! My zumba instructor friend comes to my ladies night on Tuesday nights for dinner! I've never done Zumba before in my life till the day of.
LOVE that idea! I hadn't ever thought about that, but it's definitely a good idea! People see you have a huge goal and think there's no way they can help you get close, but little amounts they can do! Love it!
