Q. Our city yearly puts on a western-themed parade, chili cook-off, rodeo and carnival to raise funds for the local charities. However, over the years our demographics have changed from semi-rural to a more urban, affluent constituency. Consequently the yearly fund raiser has sufferd from lack of interest and has lost money for the past five years. What alternative functions have your cities found to be profitable? I should add that the yearly expenses for these functions are above $800,000, so we're looking for an event, or events, that will bring in around $1,000,000 or more. Asked by PIX-ED - Wed Dec 5 12:22:03 2007 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. If you follow the demographics, then adjust. Invite other groups to join in. Since we have a diverse population, it's time to celebrate the "Melting Pot" phenomenon. If your expenses are in the triple digits, then you're beyond my help. Pare off the fat and write the checks to the charities. When you said a shift from rural to more urban, I figured the town was from 15,000 to 25,000. Hire a consultant!

Local elections should be represented and supported by the people of that district. Now ANYBODY from anywhere can do anything short of voting for states they don't even live in! It seems illegal to me. I have strong political beliefs, but I am setting aside whether or not I am liberal or conservative. You make a good point, Lawrence. I would NEVER compromise the first amendment. I think it's more an issue of integrity. Asked by Cub6265 - Wed May 19 00:19:47 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. I understand the honor behind the argument you present; however, since you don't forfeit your First Amendment rights when leaving your home state or district, a Federal Law would most likely be unconstitutional. I do not think, however, that would prevent the states themselves from enacting state laws about such concerns. Edit: I 100% agree, that's why I think a state law is the best way to go about doing what you suggest. Answered by lawrenceba549 - Wed May 19 00:25:25 2010 How do I find the Local Food Giveaways?

With all the donations being made, even at Grocery stores , and the Salvation Army collecting, there should be Food available, Indeed finding the source, may be the difficulty. Why not ask at the point of Collection such as Meijers, Kroger's stores and the Salvation Army are the ones that come to mind, where to go to receive what you need , not only food but clothing if you need it should be available as well. Purple Heart, and others are frequent collectors, there should be a place where the ones in need can get it. Are you able to call them?God bless you Answered by pooterilgatto - Tue Dec 19 03:44:00 2006 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Local"
