Hi there,

our barn has horrible jumps, we are thinking of haveing some fundraisers to pay for them, the jump sare 4 670 grand for 8 jumps and 4 oxers.

what are some fundraising I deas that you have?!

we have thought of:

Tack cleaning

garage sale

BBQ

horse washing

Answer 1

If you have your own trails or have a local place with open trails. Host a Trailride - have a consession stand, donation box, enterance fee....

A few girls and I from school did this to raise money for a rescue as one our friends projects. It was a lot of fun, and really not to much work if you have the right place and some helpful people.. We made around $400.00 which was awesome for just throwing it together last minute

Good Luck

Answer 2

Some other things you could do to raise money could be:

Dog Walking

Pony Rides

Car Washing

You could also hold an event like Pony Day. Pony Day is an event when younger kids get a chance to ride around for like an hour with someone holding their pony. They can do mini obstacle courses, an extremely tiny X and they get to groom their pony.  

Answer 3

Pony Rides

Raffle off some sort of tack Item, make the tickets like, 5 dollars and then raffle off a spare saddle or a free riding lesson.

Answer 4

Our 4H club held a used tack sale this spring.  We made about $500.00. They usually do best in spring before everyone starts the new show season, but having one in the fall would help keep the barns cleaned out.  

A "model" horse show is another way to go.  People who are not able to actually own a horse love to collect and tack up their Breyer models.And they love to show them off.  This is a good fundraiser anytime of year.

Chance off a bucket (large!) of donated horse items.   Brushes, detanglers, fly masks or sprays, cookies and anything else you can get your stable buddies and local businesses or stores to donate.

Answer 5

What about a horse show? Like a small one for the riders at the barn. Each person who comes pays a dollar or so. Put on a BBQ and yeah, try tack cleaning. Maybe make some art and crafts, sell them and such.  

Answer 6

yeah I was going to say Garage sale, or mayb start ebaying some things you dn't need or craigslist them. Quick and easy money

Answer 7

car wash, pony parties, mini-camp

Answer 8

bake sale is all i can think of know i will but more has i think of them

Answer 9

I would suggest if you have a local 4-H and talk to them to see if you can have a fairly large horse show (make sure barn owner is ok with supervising it) and then make up a prize list do everything from english leadline to 3' jumps. you will get an amazing turn out and you can also have a snack stand table so bake like brownies and so forth also use the entry fees believe it or not if you have 1 person enter 3 class's or a division with the entry fee at 10.00 a class you will get money fast. at ten dollars a class you only need 465 entrys or 155 people with 3 entry. Its sounds like a lot but if you make special class's like for people just learning to canter do liek canter strait streach and so forth you will get a nice turn out.. TRUST ME.  

Answer 10

You could host a play day. Post flyers advertising it. Do a low cost entry fee (like $5.00) and have a BBQ plate lunch or dinner (charge for the plates).

You can also try having not only a horse wash. But, also have a car/truck and trailer wash.

Have a raffle for a week of free lessons, or training

Used tack sale

Answer 11

I think stall mucking would be a good fundraiser. Horse washing is also a good idea. But, it would be inconvienent for people to bring their horses to you.

Answer 12

you can abg up horse manure and sell it round your villege/town, people will buy it because itys great for the garden.

you could do a sponsored ride.

put down a load of fancy dress ideas on a piece of apare, then out them all in a hat and pick one out.

get people to sponsor you and ride!! fun!

urr... you could give lessons on your yard or take a few of the safest horses to town or a show and give little rides with a sort of 'minni lesson' for children. charge about £6 for a small hack up the road and a small bit of schooling.

urr... sell any spare/unused/un wanted tack/rugs/boots etc

thats all i can think of right now. lol

Answer 13

me my friends and my instructor had to fund raise so we could go to shows. We thought of offering a blanket cleaning service. As in horse rugs. Or do a car wash... those tend to pay off.
