we have been tossing around the idea of a spaghetti dinner but emphasizing the boys involvement by waiting on the tables, clearing the plates, filling tea glasses and leaving mints at the end of the dinner. Nice, small signs will be posted "tipping accepted". Have carnations donated by a local florist to give to the female customers. Also, have take-out available. Good PR for your pack would be to have a projector slide show of the past events. It could get those boys that are not in scouting interested about joining. Bake Sale: our pack has the capability to use our chartered organizations kitchens x 2. Our meetings are on Thursday night. We are going to get the ingredients donated from various grocery stores and have the boys learn more about baking, working in a kitchen, reading recipes, working together, wrapping items for presentation and pricing strategies. Then on Saturday morning we would set up at local businesses to promote our organization with the boys selling their own products. Lots of good learning opportunites for this type of fund raiser.
