Flatlander,
We are doing one now that is a bowling contest.
Entry fee was .50 cents and that will be the prize.
A loss counts as a strike (X), a turtle counts as a spare (/) and a gain counts as a gutterball (0). Missing a meeting is a gutterball and you pay a fine if you gain, which also goes in the prize purse.
It lasts for 10 to 12 weeks. Score is also counted as in bowling. A strike and you count the next two, get a spare and you count the next one. We have enough money to have a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winner.
Another favorite of ours is the mega money. You are paid play money for doing certain things and the gainers bring in a wrapped gift. At the end of the contest, you have an auction and buy the gifts with the play money that you earned. This is a lot of fun.
I have others, but I need to get going tonight. We're having an county vote tomorrow and I'm working the polls.
Good luck with finding your contest. Let us know what you decided on. I'm always looking for new contest and programs.
