How to Throw The Ultimate Diaper Party (8 Steps)


First thing you need to do is get with the person planning the baby shower. This might be your wife so it is pretty simple. But if it isn't then you need to find out who it is and ask them when and where they are planning it.
If the person throwing the party is doing it at their house then you need to ask them if it is okay if you throw a diaper party in their back yard. If they ask tell them. Make sure they know that you plan to bring alcohol. (If you don't drink then bring other drinks)
Let them know that you are planning on providing Bar B Que for the men to cook while they are out there.
If the person throwing the baby shower has agreed to do this ask them if they can put a note in the invitation about the diaper party and that all men are to bring a bag of diapers.
If the person throwing the baby shower has not agreed to the party and your house is free that is even better because you don't have to take anything any where. Just ask the person throwing the shower to add that into the invitation. In case the person doing it is a real you know what you might end up having to send out your own which a man's invitation is typically just word of mouth so you are fine on that one.
Once you have gotten the place decided you need to figure out it you are going to provide the alcohol or if you are doing **** (Bring your own beer) Probably better if you are doing it at home to provide it for them. If you are doing it at the bar then you should pay for the first round and then everyone else pays for their own.
After you do that you need to tell your wife that you need Bar B Que food. Or if she is the one throwing the shower then you need to give her a break and go get it yourself. You are the master Quer anyway so go do your thing.
After everyone has started to arrive you are on your own. Make sure that you have everything out for them to do. Basketball, football, a radio with the game on or if at all possible you could move the tv to the patio for them to watch the game while they are out there. Just make sure it isn't going to rain.

How to Organize a Euchre Tournament Fundraiser


Build a team of volunteers, calling on people in the organization for which you are holding the fundraiser. You will make the volunteers feel valued by including them in every step of the planning--plus, they might have great ideas.
Pick a date for the euchre tournament fundraiser. Choose a date that is far enough out that you have time to organize and advertise the event, and a date that does not conflict with a holiday or other time when people might not be able to attend.
Pick a location. The organization might have its own space that you can use for the event. If not, see if a local event hall will let you rent the hall for free or at a discount, in return for advertising at the tournament.
Decide what types of refreshments to provide, and whether you will offer alcoholic drinks. Consider providing a cash bar with proceeds going to your cause. Check with city hall to see if you need a special permit to serve alcohol or food.
Decide how you will raise money during the fundraiser. For example, you could charge a fee to enter the tournament, or you could charge a fee for each game played. You also could sell tickets for a raffle at the end of the fundraiser. Choose prizes that are not too expensive but are still nice, such as a bottle of wine or a knife set, or ask merchants to contribute raffle prizes.
Design invitations or fliers for the euchre tournament fundraiser event. Include the organization's name, the place and date of the euchre tournament fundraiser, and any other important information such as a cover charge. Make sure the title of the fundraiser stands out to attract attention, and include a picture. Be sure to let guests know where their money will go and what it will buy.
Decide on the number of tables to have at the fundraiser, and buy one deck of cards for each table; you can buy special euchre decks, or you can create a euchre deck from a regular deck. Buy some extra decks of cards, in case any are lost or damaged, or anyone requests an extra table.
On the night of the fundraiser, assign tasks to each volunteer and ensure they are familiar with their job description. Hand out thank you cards, or small gifts if funds allow, to each volunteer to thank him for his help in organizing the euchre tournament fundraiser.
