We recently ran a fund-raising night for our local Primary School; a race night (where you place bets on horse races). We raised £1500 (a lot for our school) but we have run race nights for three consecutive years and attendance is dwindling so we are looking for new ideas.
We would want to raise similar amounts of money. Ideally the event will:
i) involve spending money on the night
ii) involve people bringing their own alcohol
iii) not require us to beg for prizes (we do a lot of this already, so raffles / charity auctions are not suitable)
Any ideas
try a casino night you can hire a roulette table set up consisting of a wheel and printed table cloth and chips which you sell to punters to play with we used to do it in our social club to raise money for charity

Get everyone to put £1 coin into a basin and remove it from the tables. Everyone stands up chooses heads or tails. They then put their hands on their heads if they think it will be heads or put their hands behind their backs if they think it will be tails. Someone running the event flips a coin and announces whether it is heads or tails. The ones who have chosen the wrong one sit down. The people still standing choose again and coin is flipped again. This is repeated until only one person remains standing. This person is given a prize and all the money is put into the fund-raising account.

Garry,
I see poker tournaments and casino nights are already mentioned. Both are excellent ideas.
