Here's the deal. We live near Boston and there is a man that takes kids to Europe every April to play in "EURO/US Games, boys and girls go. This is for hockey! Now, the deal is that the kids all have to raise their money to go.
Most of the families that go are well off and do not need to do any fundraising. The man that runs the program offers usually two different raffles, one for the Patriots and on for the Red Sox. Since we have only lived in Massachusetts for 4 years and we don't have any family in this state it is very hard for us to sell these items. They can also recruit kids to go to Europe. If the kids don't live in Ma. they would just have to fly over here and leave from Boston for the trip.
So, in an effort to help my mom and stepdad and to help my brothers, Trevor and Justin, I am looking for ways for them to raise the money to be able to go play hockey in Europe. Anyone that is a true hockey lover knows that is an excellent opportunity for any youth and a great assest for them to put on their college application.

Just because you dont have family there you cant sell the things?
Wow another person to add to the list that never has anything to say unless it's negative. If you go back and read I said "it is very hard for us to sell" I never said impossible. But I do know that the rest of the families on the hockey team usually have most of their sales from other family members so therefor it is yes very hard for us to sell an amount big enough to make a difference or small dent in the price. Detailed enough for you smccauley06?
Could you try and sell the items on eBay or something?
