Dropping for Dollars: Golf Ball Drop Contest

Grab Headlines, Raise Money and Give Someone The Chance to Win the Big Bucks With a Giant Prize Golf Ball Drop!

Whether or not you pair it with a golf tournament, a golf ball drop contest makes for a very fun and spectator-friendly fundraiser. After all, there’s nothing quite like watching thousands of golf balls cascading from a helicopter that’s hovering over the 18th hole!

Running a golf ball drop is simple: you sell numbered golf balls (or whatever else you might like to drop from the sky) and drop them on a designated target from a cherry-picker, hot air balloon, or ideally, a helicopter –and whomever owns the ball that lands closest to the target’s center wins your prize.

Of course the secret to a successful Golf Ball Drop contest is ball sales! One of the surest ways to get to a sellout, is to offer ball buyers spectacular prizes such as a brand new car or better yet – the chance to win $1,000,000 paid for by Odds On Promotions.

Here’s how it works. Prior to the drop, Odds On will preselect a few lucky golf balls and if one of those balls lands closest to the target, your winner will score your giant prize and Odds On Promotions will write the check.

Spring Football Fundraiser (UPDATE: Stafford Wins G-Day QB Challenge)

football fundraiser - target tossUpdate: In front of a record crowd, Stafford showcased his throwing abilities in a series of drills, including throwing balls into trash cans, through swinging tires and to a fan attempting to run slant routes downfield landing 13 points while the other three quarterbacks combined for seven.  Even though Stafford’s fan partner and volunteer receiver didn’t win the $25,000 prize,  a great time was had by all with Stafford’s fan scoring season tickets.

—

To raise money for University of Georgia junior outfielder Johnathan Taylor, UGA fans could bid via an online auction at www.georgiadogs.com for a chance to compete with former UGA quarterbacks Eric Zeier, David Greene, DJ Shockley, and Matthew Stafford in a Quarterback Challenge during the G-Day spring football game.  Each winning bidder’s quarterback will compete in three skills challenges as part of a football fundraiser, including throwing routes to the on-field contestants. The quarterback earning the most points in the contests earns their fan partner the chance to participate in a target toss promotion for $25,000 which will be split 50/50 between the Jonathan Taylor Fund and the winning bidder.  If they miss the shot, the winning bidder will still be richly rewarded … taking home a 42” HD LCD TV and (2) 2011 Georgia football season tickets.
