Here’s a great way to kickoff your high school football season…

Allen High School in Allen, Texas is having its annual Kick-off Picnic this Friday evening. The football team, cheerleaders and marching band drum line will be there. Plus there will be a live DJ.

Sure it’s a great way to celebrate the start of the season and by August kids are dying for something to do anyway! It’s also a great way to start fundraising.

Allen prices this event very reasonably at $3.50 per person or $15.00 per family. Like most events, funds are not raised primarily from ticket sales. It’s all the other little stuff like raffles, silent auctions, and sales. Yes, this is a great event to sell spirit items. According to  Pegasus News:

Patrons will have a chance to order Allen Eagles spirit wear, yard signs and decals. Join or get information on the Allen Eagle Touchdown Club at the picnic as well.

Many football booster clubs, cheerleaders and other sports teams sell spirit items as a fundraiser. Parents, students and other sports fans love these items anyway, so it’s a great item to sell. If your football booster club is doing other fundraisers such as catalog sales, discount cards, or other direct sale items have them on hand at an event like this!
