Our fire explorer post does fundraisers too. The kids do car washes, bowl-a-thos, they run an explorer muster with entry fees and get awards donated, spagetti dinners are easy too, etc.
Another idea is rent a post for yard clean-up (chores) with the owner making a donation toward the post for labor. (raking, leaf pickup, mowing, etc.)
They also run an annual raffle with a rocking chair company donating a really nice hardwood chair with a maltese cross etched into it. That raising some decent cash.
