MID: Fundraisers

["H. Grant" <hgrant@gatecom.com>]

I am in need of suggestions for fundraisers.  I will be running a trip to DC for
our 8th graders last year for the first time.  The trip is over $600 so fundraising
is necessary.  At my former district, we had the students sell raffle tickets.  I
have since found out that the only people who can buy or SELL raffle tickets in
Michigan are those over 18 years of age.  I am toying with having parents pick up
and sell the tickets which might make the whole process easier since I won't have
to worry about students bringing money and stubs to school.  I am in need of
finding some other fundraiser that would let each student raise money for his/her 
trip
rather than just acquiring a pool of money.  Any thoughts?

Thanks,
