As the title reads what ideas do you have? Feel free to post legitimate ideas or just the plain ridiculous...
My first idea is a legitimate one (unless it sounds stupid in which has I meant it as a laugh..
) -
Idea # 1 - FTF Big Day Out!Invite the Richmond faithful (and anyone else for that matter) to Punt Road for the event. Have bands playing, highlight movies playing on big screens, signing booths, competitions, 'dunk a player' stands, silent auctions for signed jumpers/tours/visit to rooms/coaches address etc, jumping castles, food stalls, presentions of prizes from coaches/admin/players for big donations, sausage sizzles, tours of the new facilities etc
Entry Cost : $50 (Adult), $20 (Concession/Child) and $120 (Family).
The club can also grab a take of the money raised from food, rides etc on top.
I feel people will be more happy to part with $50 plus if they know it is 1) going to the club FTF and 2) they get something for their money (entertainment, meet players, tour of facilities etc).
Just an idea of course. If the event can't be held at Punt Road due to works it can be held at another venue with tours given away as door prizes or for another small donation (is this pushing the friendship ???)
Idea # 2 - Ex Recruiters and Coaches in stocks!Erect a set of medieval stocks and rotate every recruiter or ex coach through them for varying lengths of time depending on their errors, deceptions etc. Richmond supporters are welcome to choose between delivering a kick up the ass or throw rotten tomatoes.
Cost: $10 a kick, $15 a tomato (Please note that the club will take bookings for particular figures such as TW who will attract big numbers!!!)
Anyone else have aany other ideas????
