Teams we have been on had the parents that would rather just pay another $100 or $200 rather than get involved. We already have a $200 cash call up front after fees.
The bottle collection was pretty easy for us. Just told some relatives to hold on to bottles if they could and we would come get them.
Also, have a great relationship with a dozen or so neighbours and they agreed to give our son bottles for a month. It really piled up.
The kids on the team did almost all of the work, they really enjoyed loading up the truck after practice. Cannot remember what we raised but it was surprisingly high.
I will be checking this thread for ideas; in case I get suckered into organising anything.
