Sunday the was the day of the runway challenge. We had our roster all organized and I was on Cafe (Hot chocolates and coffee) the whole time because I have had lots of experience in that section of selling. There was also a bakes sale and sausage sizzle.
The morning started off by setting up the stall. We had a few tables all set up next to each other and Daniel had already set up the machine. There were lots of power cords every were so that we could plug in the 2 machines and the money till.
Not soon after everything was set up and ready, people started to arrive and pick up there bags from in the gym. Sadly we had a rival who was right next to the door and was probably going to steal all our customers.
We didn't get very many customers at the start because it was really hot. It sounded like the bake sale was going well and the sausages were a bit quiet. More people started to come and noticed were we were and we got more customers.
We had some crazy times were there were so many orders as groups of people came to order. Some people even came back to say how nice their drink was which made us very happy. The bake sale moved from being in the cafe as no one could see them there.
They moved in the sun near the sausage sizzle and had the big school gazebo up. They had many customers as they were visible and they had very cheap prices. Mums cupcakes that she made sold like wildfire as they looked and tasted amazing.
We got some more customers and then we got told to wrap up everything. We had to bring everything into the cafeteria and put everything into its place. We were happy because we had learnt lots of money from just looking into the till.
We knew we wouldn't get all the money in the till as we had to pay back the float and half the money to the school for all the cups, hot chocolate and e.t.c. Our rival coffee shop had to pay $30.00 for being there at the event and the Runway challenge group gave it to us.
They also said that they would pay us $500 for letting them use our school for the whole event and also said that they would pay for all the ingredients we used such as the sausages, hot chocolate cups e.t.c.
we were really happy with the days work but were happy to finish. I can't wait until another big fundraiser like that one so it can get us closer to the Gold Coast.
