Planet's input needed on this years fundraiser - Page 3

**Nzoner** · 02-23-2007, 09:29 AM

I know this is early but a couple of ideas have come up that I wanted to get feedback on.

1.Look at moving the Saturday party to a different location just up the road from my place that will handle alot more people.The reasoning behind this is being able to get the public involved i.e. more money for the charity and also a percentage going to Kyle and the Planet.

The 2nd part of this idea would be to stop the public function towards mid-evening and then we(the planeteers)move the rest of the evening back to my place.

2.This idea came from another person and would include the Saturday party with everyone either staying overnight at Casa De Nzoner's or a local hotel and actually having a continuation of the weekend festivities in the gameroom during a Chiefs road game.I understand that we have a few planeteers who come a great distance and going to Arrowhead is a big part of their reason for doing so.

The Sunday party would of course include the Chiefs on the big screen plus 6 other games on the tv's and we would look at having an actual tailgate party here etc.

Anyhow,just looking for some feedback on these ideas all thoughts are welcome.

Thanks all.

Don't forget, it is going to possibly be cold around KC that time of year. It is 24 here today.

I'm not sure what your fundraiser is, but I'd like to see a fundraiser sometime for the little girl who fell thru the ice and drowned here awhile back near my place... They are trying to raise money to start up a dive team in our area for such events...

Last I heard, they have near $6,000 raised, and that's just half of what they need...

I'm not saying this is what needs to be done, but thought maybe the planet might want to do this sometime later on in the year...

I like the bus idea, safety first when it comes to transporting 100 drunks.

I also don't mind spending the whole time in NZoners. Plenty of activities, but might get a little tight if it's cold outside and there are 200 people.

But you don't have to worry about as many 'rules' and such (laws, whatever).

I also like the idea of not having to get up at the ass-crack of dawn (that's why just stay up the whole night anyway)

If getting up early is an issue, why not try to schedule around a 3pm or night game?

I'd like to keep the same charity simply because Mrs Nzoner has RA and she is a big part of helping out with our anuual weekend.

Now that's an idea....

Although some may need to take Monday off too, and that could limit out-of-town attendance.....ah, screw it....just take Monday off.

The place I was considering if it's avialable is not more than 2 miles up the highway from me but I don't know what all they have to offer.As for the road game here I was thinking ahead to a Planet breakfast tailgate with Bloody Mary's etc. plus we could all hang out together 1 more day all together without the hassle of trying to sell 40 tickets,collect money etc. and then still taking the chance of being spread all over Arrowhead.

I'm hoping this thread stays near the top as I want to hear the opinions of Dole,Frazod and hopefully Delt etc.

This year is looking as though it will be in September as I have got a crazy October already shaping up.

Focking my stuffed animals will no longer be an activity

As for the late game,that's an idea as well and why I started this topic early.

Another benefit of the doing the road game thing is it should be a little more affordable since we wouldn't have to make a donation to Carl as well.

Damn Joe, I hope I never get to the point that I know what I am doing a year from now.

I was trying to bust Chagrin's chops for not bringing an outer garmet to last years festivities.

It was colder than normal.
