We did a few different things this year:

*Bumper balls and marksmanship in the gym.

*Larger prizes. We spend a bit more on prizes, but the money we took in covered the expense, plus we have prizes left over to use next year. Students saved their tickets to spend on the larger prizes or they could spend them on the smaller prizes, similar to Circus, Circus or Chuck E. Cheese.

*We have some changes to make for next year, but all in all, it was successful!
