Raise money this summer for ANY youth group (grades 6-12) trip by working at the Oconto County Fair coming to Gillett August 18-21! There are two great options: Lion’s Club and Parking and you can work either one or both! Sign up for as many shifts as you can commit to doing. There are fewer shifts available this year, so sign up as soon as possible!
Youth Convention
While the money you raise can be used for any youth group trip, most students (grades 6-12) raise money for Youth Convention, which is our fall trip to La Crosse, October 28-30. At Youth Convention, we stay in a hotel together (with a pool!), go out to eat, and attend a conference with about 1,000 teens from all over Wisconsin so we can grow closer to God through great speakers and worship teams.
You will need 5 shifts (20 hours total) to pay for the whole trip (excluding meals). Any extra work you do can be given to you as food money. If you don’t work 5 full shifts, you will get a discount based on how much you worked.
Lion’s Club
This fundraiser is good for all middle and high schoolers. The Lion’s Club sells food. You will take orders and money, give change, and serve the food. A parent/adult is needed for each shift— there are a few teens working at the same time together. Please arrive 10-15 minutes early to sign in for your shift.
If you’re on a phone/tablet, you will need the Google Sheets app (Apple / Android). No sign in is needed on a computer.
Parking
This fundraiser is best for high school or mature middle schoolers. The Fair has two entrances where people buy parking passes. You will collect money, give change, and give passes. Go to the Fair Office 10-15 minutes early to sign in. Mike will take you to your entrance. Bring something to do for when it’s not busy. Also, bring a couple water bottles!
If you’re on a phone/tablet, you will need the Google Sheets app (Apple / Android). No sign in is needed on a computer.
