Hey guys,

The gymnastics team that I coach is going to be having fundraiser for CMN during June. They are all going to try and sell a minimum of 5 Let's Eat Cookbooks. I have 30 kids that compete. If they all participate like I hope they will, it should be over $2k. I've given them an incentive of a $50 cash prize to the top selling gymnast. Please pray for me guys. I really need a pick me up after only closing 3 shows in May and having one earlier this week that had NOBODY SHOW UP!!! I will have 3 weeks off from coaching this summer so the extra income will come in handy. Plus, our yearly CMN fundraiser is a community service project that my gymnastics family holds very dear to our hearts and we want to provide them with as much as we can. I'm just going to lift this one up to God and have faith that he'll see me through this endeavor.

thanks. we are doing this with our competitive gym team and competitive cheerleading squads. What's neat about this is my recruit is a cheer mom so she's heading up that group and i'm heading up gymnastics. We are working together on this, but submitting two different shows. It's fun working together on it. I'm excited to see our results!
 
I'd put a disclaimer that there is a minimum amount sold to win the prize. You don't want to give a big prize like that for someone who just sold $50 worth of stuff. Good Luck....

That's a good idea. Although, the kids I coach as well as their parents are always excited about this fundraiser each year. The gymnasts and cheerleaders are already starting to make it a friendly little competition between themselves. So we'll see what happens!
