Fundraising Fete Ideas

Question: Stall idea’s / games for a carnival please ?
Does anyone have any idea’s for how to make money at a local carnival fund raising event.
In the past stalls (a table set up in the local school with a person behind it), have included things like, getting a bale of hay and sticking in it like 200 very long nails, you would then pay like £1 for 2 go’s at pulling out the nails, and if you got a nail with a white end then you win a prize (something small).
I have thought of maybe getting a big jar of sweets and getting people to pay £1 to guess how many sweets are inside, and the person at the end who guesses correct or nearest wins either the sweets or £20 or something like that.
What idea’s do people have, no matter how silly i’d really appreciate any ideas, its all for fundraising for our local school.
What have you seen at carnival’s, fete’s, events etc
thank you
ps 10 points for the most funnest game

Answer: Another one I remember after your previous Q on “CE” is “Splat the Rat”. Get some Tubing, about 3 feet long, that is wide enough for a tennis ball to easily pass through.Then place the Tubing at an angle of around 60 degrees, and provide a Plastic Mallet for the Punter to hit the ball with when it comes out of the bottom of the Tubing. Trust me, it is harder than it looks, and most Men will pay more than once, especially if they have a Lady with them- bruises the ego you see.
Costs next to nothing to do, so any takings are pure profit!
Good Luck again!
