There are a variety of booths that your group can do the night of Relay.

Photo Booth  Offer mementos from the Relay Night. You could create unusual backgrounds, wooden backgrounds with head cutouts or photos with the stars and have look a likes and costumed characters in attendance at certain times. Borrow a digital camera and printer from one of your group members. You can offer photo buttons using supplies such as Badge-a-Minit.

Small Biz Connection – Do you know small business owners or distributors in your area? Partner with your local reps for companies like Tupperware and Creative Memories.

AVON consultant Shannon Copeland recently held a booth at her local relay.

I was there to pass out fliers, business cards, brochures, dvd’s and sell raffle tickets. We have to give all proceeds to the American Cancer Society that night. I make good contacts everywhere I go, so it was worth it! There were booths from lots of other groups too.

Food Booths - The type of booth that most groups immediately think of is food booths. Sell BBQ, hot dogs, hamburgers, ice cream, funnel cakes or anything people would like. Choose just a few items and specialize. For example your group could specialize in hot dogs and sausage dogs and offer just about every topping you can think of.

Glow Booth  Let relayers shine! Glow in the dark sticks and wearables are very popular with kids and adults alike. Offer glow bracelets, necklaces in a variety of colors. Just enter the word glow in the search box on Oriental Trading Companyand you’ll find lots of glow stuff.

There’s lots of other fun stuff that you could offer at your relay booth. Always find out what other groups are doing so you don’t end up selling the same things! Usually team captains have meetings where they can share this information. If not call your ACS office and I bet they would be glad to help!
