I am stepping up from team member to Team Co-leader for the next year.  My team is at the Middle School where I teach.  I was so disappointed this year (in a new district, at a new school) to see so few people involved with our team, and I'm hoping to add some things to next year's calendar so we can be a bit more active from the start.

What advice do you all have for recruiting team members when the general "It's for a good cause and we have a blast" line just doesn't cut it?

 Thanks in advance!! 

I am trying to find the meaning of relay-how each part of the event symbolizes dealing with cancer. Such as, at the beginning you are upbeat and detemined to beat this. Later into the evening, you start to become scared, etc. I can't find this anywhere or I am not looking in the right places. We are having a fundraiser at the vision center where I work and I want to make a poster telling all about relay. I really want to include this on the poster. Please help! Teri 

I am holding a yard sale this weekend to benefit my team. I have decided not to price any of the items, but ask for donations instead. Has anyone done this and does it seem to be successful? I am also looking for help with how to word this in the local newspaper...any suggestions? Thanks!!
