Great Lakes Burn Camp

Next year for the Great Lakes Burn camp, or Fire Department would like to work with the community in raising money to actually send a few children to camp. Mattawan is a small town so our resources are kind of minimal so I was wondering if anybody has any fund raising ideas for us?
