Big Event Incentives

Our big event prize programs are better because they motivate more students to sell. Participation increases when students can attend an exciting party or show as a reward for reaching an easily obtainable sales goal. Learn about our big events

Once you reach $50,000 in sales, there’s no cost for any of our big event fundraising prize programs. If you fall short, we’ll ask you to share the cost of your event; however, there are other options. Learn how to qualify for a free big event.

Our super party and super splash party are 2-hour events. If additional time is needed, the organization may need to pay extra.

Our magic show is 40 minutes, and our reptile show is 1 hour long.

The best time to bring in a magic show is during another recognized event:

• September: National Literacy Month, Citizenship Day, National Good Neighbor Day
• October: National Safe School Week, National Character Counts Week, National Red Ribbon Week, Halloween
• November: National Youth Appreciation Week, National Parental Involvement Day, National Family Week, National Recycling Week
• February: Valentine’s Day

There may be times when lowering the student item goal to gain admission to a big event is warranted. For example, a family may have multiple children attending the school, thus making it more challenging to reach the goal for each child. What follows is our recommended policy for this type of situation:

• Handle it on a case-by-case basis rather than announcing this policy to everyone.
• We recommend you not cut the goal below half of the original goal.
• It will be your responsibility to track the families who request this.

Yes, we require everyone to review and enforce the policies listed in our safety rules document.

To have a successful big event at your school, there are certain things that you’ll want to do beforehand. Before your event, we’ll send you a preparation checklist.

For our magic show prize program, we provide follow-up resource material that schools can utilize after their assembly. For more information, view our curriculum-based magic programs.

Your goal is to make your big event memorable for your students. To ensure they get the most out of it, learn how to maximize your big event experience.

Organizations are usually limited to 1 show. The exception is if the organization exceeds $65,000 in sales and there’s not enough seating for one show. In this case, a second show must immediately follow the first. Any school that desires a second show and does not meet the above criteria can choose to pay extra.
