On Peacekeepers Day Weekend (August 6 and 7, 2005) Do Anything to raise funds to support the Peacekeepers Demining Fund projects recognising the sacrifice of the Buffalo 9. The DO ANYTHING FETE is designed to suit your particular passions, talents, and skills. DO ANYTHING but DO SOMETHING!

1. Invite friends and neighbours to join you for a Peacekeepers Day barbeque. You put on the eats - they bring a donation.

2. Organize a Peacekeepers Day lunch or picnic with your office, club, or church.

3. Organise the traditional fundraising event with dinner or dessert or drinks and snacks. Already events are being organised on Canadian Forces bases and by Rotary Clubs.

4. Organize a live or silent auction. Collect items from friends, neighbours or local business; get 'sweat equity' donations such as yard clean-up, gardening, or snow shovelling futures.

5. Run a 50/50 draw - sell numbered tickets and award 50% of the funds raised as prizes - put the remaining 50% of the funds into mine action.

6. Play a tennis match with your friends - losers pay.

7. Play a round of golf with your colleagues or better yet organize a Peacekeepers Day Golf Tournament.The golfing community has a proud history of support for Canada's efforts to rid the world of landmines. Approach your local golf course. Block off areas with red ribbon to mark minefields - charge to retrieve golf balls hit in these areas.

8. Organize a street yard sale and donate the proceeds.

9. Organize a Bowl-a-Thon. 'Sell' lanes to corporate sponsors. Participants get pledges.

10. Organize a bike-a-thon. Work with the local school to use their track. Participants get pledges based on the number of laps they will do. Get a local fast-food donor to sponsor and donate product - participants get free; attendees pay.

11. Organize a wine tasting/ beer tasting event. Work with local wineries/ breweries to secure low cost product - or invite them to participate directly.

12. Organise that summer shinny game you've been talking about for years.
