A hot-tub-a-thon, or what we like to cal Hot Tubbing is a great social event which we use as a philanthropy. No one really knows for sure when and who started it but it's pretty sure it was some Lambda Chi's looking for an excuse to get in a hot tub full of girls. My chapter has been doing this for about ten years. Each of our members is expected to sell $20 of raffle tickets. If he doesn't then he can't sit in the hot tub. The sorority which we pair up with can sell as many as they want. It helps to get prizes for both girls and guys but mostly girls since they will probably buy more.
Most businesses will donate prizes. They can write it off on taxes. It use to be a 24 hour thing but we ran into liability issues so now it's only 8. Ask a hot-tub company in your local area if you can use one of their display models and if you make tshirts you can place their logo on it. Some places are in business to just rent out hot-tubs. Do the same for anyone who gives you a lot of donations.
Hold it on your front lawn if you can and get someone to DJ the event. Make a big deal about it. If you got it flaunt it.
HAVE FUN!
