Calling all creative minds!!!

We have decided to put on a large fundraiser this next March. It will consist of a pasta feed, live auction, silent auction, live music, and a mild car display. In Fresno, Ca March is usually cold and rain is always around the corner so we don't want to emphasize the car show much. Here is the kicker, tickets go on sale next Friday and we don't have a name for the event yet. With everything I don't want to call it something lame and bland. Any ideas? The event name doesn't have to be predictable, just catchy! I'll send out a free HRC T-Shirt to the person who comes up with the name for the event. This is my last desperate attempt at branding this fundraiser, my brain is fried

 

fundraiser for what?

 

We are giving a portion of the proceeds to Nancy Hinds Hospice here in Fresno. A lot of local enthusiasts have spent their last days there.

You already have a name right in front of you.

How about the Hospice Project or the Nancy Hinds Hospice Project

 

Helping the Hospice

 

Having been involved with the Hospice organization I applause you for your support.

The care they showed for both my parents and then again several years later for both my wife's parents,,they have be a valuable asset to our community and I am certain they have been to many Hambers members family's.

I wish you much success. HRP

Hospice Rods?

 

i like this. but i think you said there was less emphasis on the cars and more on the auctions.

 

I really like Hot Rodders Hootenanny! I don't want to put too much focus on the hot rods because there won't be many of them there. It's all about the hot rod community getting together and just having a good time after a long winter. So far my vote is for Hot Rodder or Hot Rodders Hootenanny! Any other idea's? Thanks for the help fella's.

 

Glad you liked my suggestion. You might wanna use the "Hinds" or "Hospice" or both in the name. I checked after posting, and I see there's at least one other Hot Rod Hootenananny. I don't know if that would cause a problem. Maybe not.

Also checked for an appropriate song. Sure enough...lol.

 

P.S. - Good luck with your fund-raising efforts! Kudos to you and all involved.

 

I just want to be sensitive to the fact that we are giving a portion of the proceeds to Hospice. Thats the only reason why I am hesitant to put their name or "hospice" in the title. The charity name will be all over out posters and event swag.

 

cruzin' for a cause!

This might be splitting hairs, so I'll apologize up front.
I've never heard a fundraising referred to as a "pasta feed", and frankly doesn't sound very appetizing. Would it be more appealing, and therefore raise more money, if it were called a "pasta dinner"?
