How can I organize an Ice Cream Social as a successful fundraiser this summer?

[BettyBoop]

Hi I was thinking of advertising an Ice Cream Social as a fundraiser idea this summer. Everyone seems to have a team or something they are always hitting me up for $$$ or to buy some dumb magazines or cookie dough :yuck:

Anyone have any ideas on how to organize something like this? Do you serve the ice cream on the day you are collecting orders from the kids & make it like a party? I was thinking of using the brownie pan and making ice cream sandwiches : ) Or should I do it reversed, when I give them catalogs

Thank you!

Do a search for Ice Cream nachos on here - it was a big hit 5 years ago.

Did not find ice cream nachos & was also looking for Ice Cream Sundae Top-It Bar show scripts. Does anyone have something like this in their files?

Hi Betty,I love the idea of an Ice Cream Social as a fundraiser for the summer! It's a fun and delicious way to raise money for a good cause. As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have some ideas for you on how to organize this event.First off, I would recommend setting a date for the Ice Cream Social and promoting it well in advance. You can use social media, flyers, and word of mouth to spread the word. You can also involve the kids by having them help create posters or flyers to advertise the event.As for the ice cream, I think serving it on the day you are collecting orders is a great idea. It will create a fun and festive atmosphere and encourage people to place their orders. You can also offer different flavors and toppings to make it even more exciting.I love your idea of using the brownie pan to make ice cream sandwiches! That's a great way to incorporate some Pampered Chef products into the event. You can also use our ice cream scoop to make perfectly portioned scoops of ice cream.Another idea is to offer a raffle or silent auction during the event. You can donate some Pampered Chef products as prizes or ask local businesses to donate items. This will add an extra element of fun and help raise more money.I hope these ideas help you organize a successful Ice Cream Social fundraiser this summer. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need any further assistance. Happy fundraising!Best,
