I am helping plan our school's auction. I would like to know some crazy, silly, goofy, etc. ideas out there which will help bring a fun spirit to our auction plus raise money. Thanks...

All of these ideas would go to the highest bidder....

throw a pie in the principals face. You can make it so the principal is blind-folded so she can't see who the lucky person is!

(student) Principal for the Day

Front row parking for Mom at Pick up time

(for the teachers) Pay $$ to wear Jeans to school

Every one of our teachers donate some kind of item to our auction (at the urging of the principal). Usually it's something like "a movie and trip to McDonald's" or for the little ones, breakfast at IHOP and a trip to Barnes and Noble, or a visit to the Science Museum, etc. These are usually very popular.

Here are some things we have sold:

*Principal for a day
*PE Teacher for 1/2 day
*Librarian for 1/2 day
*Lunch at the Big Table, this is a table in our front office where the office staff eats.
*Teachers donate 'experiences', which can range from lunch on campus to going to a spring training game or a bbq at their home.
*Reserved parking spaces. These were lucrative, but beware... I bought one and often someone else was in it. If you sell these to someone with an ugly attitude, you will have a mess.

This year I am going to try to sell some reserved seats. I am thinking 4 front row seats to 6th grade graduation. I am also going to check with the music teacher and see if he has any upcoming preformances.

HTH!
