I have a fundraiser coming up that is being organized by a lady whose sister is running in the Joints in Motion event sometime next fall. We have a local fire hall booked and she is inviting most of the town. I really want this to be successful for her and her sister so I need all the help I can get.

I have read some of the posts here from other consultants but anything new would be great too.

Thanks.
