Benefit in the Park
Last Sunday, some of our members assisted the group Innovative Challenges on their Benefit in the Park fundraiser. Unfortunately, the Benefit in the Park did not have as much attendance as they anticipated, and we ended up with food left over. Some of it is currently in my freezer, and some in Lion Ernie’s freezer, until we come up with a good way to get rid of them, probably donate them to another charity.
While it was a bit dissappointing, it wasn’t exactly a disaster. We can mark down the lessons learned and help Innovative Challenges do better in future fundraisers. One of the things we all could have done better was getting the word out — publicity and promotion. Jeff Crilley’s upcoming presentation on “Marketing without Money” is especially appropriate!
We should have some pictures of the Benefit in the Park to post later.
