Since the chili feed in December the group has been very busy still trying to save up enough money to at least defer some of the payment for the trip to Washington DC and New York City. Here is a list of what we have been up to:
Flea market and craft sale at the Elk's Lodge in Lebanon, Oregon. That was on the Valentines Day weekend. The results were 4 - 5 items sold over the course of 2 days. As a group we decided not to do those types of events anymore. The buyers were mostly neighborhood retired folks with very little money to spend.
In February we sold snacks during Lacomb School's science fair. Nachos, chips and sodas all sold well.
On March 7th we were at a garage sale held in the gym at Pioneer School in Lebanon. Items sold in the $2 and under range and I am not sure of the money amount made but it was a lot better than the Elk's Lodge flea market by a long shot.
Last night it was family night at Pioneer School. For .50 you could watch Madagascar 2 with a bag of popcorn in the gym. Our group sold candy bars, chips, fruit snacks and sodas. We almost sold out of everything which is a good sign.
