Are you tired of doing the same old fundraising programs every year. Let’s see…. wrapping paper, candy and pizzas. The list goes on and on and they have one thing in common…Tiresome!<\/p>\n

You’re probably wondering what sports tunnels, inflatable helmet tunnels and inflatable mascot tunnels have to do with with simple fundraising ideas. The real truth<\/a> is, you’re about to find out about a great way to raise funds AND raise team spirit by doing something everyone will love.<\/p>\n

Have you ever seen big league players run onto the field or court through an Inflatable entry tunnel? There’s the expectancy of watching and waiting…in many cases you will first see a few seconds of fog coming out of the front and then as expectation grows, here comes your favorite team charging through the tunnel!<\/p>\n

These entrance tunnels come in all shapes and sizes and they are custom designed to match your team colors and graphics. But…is it possible to make money?<\/p>\n

It’s simple. All the inflatable tunnels are designed to hold advertising banners. Before you even buy your blast tunnel, post a letter to local businesses proposing a chance to advertise their company at the start of each game. Before you realize it, you’ll have enough money to buy your sports tunnel…and you’ll pull in an income year after year without having to do anything at all.<\/p>\n

Groups sell ads<\/a> in yearbooks & school papers and most companies run an ad knowing they’re just backing the school. They really don’t expect much business off of it. But an Inflatable Mascot, Inflatable football or even a basic sports entry tunnel is SO different. It’s like having a giant billboard right out there in front of your captive audience.<\/p>\n

Customized tunnels generally begin at about $3000.00 and run up to $7500.00 or so for an Inflatable Mascot or Football Helmet tunnel. If your fundraising budget isn’t that high, talk<\/a> to a couple of local businesses and see if they’ll make the buy for you, in exchange for a special advertising agreement.. You might offer to do a couple of announcements at all the games, “Our brand new entry sports tunnel is made possible by our Area Business leadership”. Fundamentally they will be prepaying their advertising and you just accumulate the money before instead of later.<\/p>\n

When you’re thinking of a sports entrance tunnel, don’t just think games. You can use your tunnel to generate publicity for your team and advertisers in all kinds of ways. Fairs, Festivals, Large corporate Events, Community<\/a> Days and trade shows are just a few of the sites that you can post your tunnel. And people will love it. Let the kids move through the tunnel just like the players or just set up a display at the entrance and talk to customers about your organization or product.<\/p>\n

Whatever you do, make sure to add inflatable tunnels to your list of fundraising ideas this year!<\/p>\n
