Next Summer

Well, better luck next summer. There are several possible events next year that my wife could get in a dunk tank. She doesn't mind doing them, and is always a GREAT dunkee. Here are the possibles:

1. School Carnival - if she is teaching or even subbing in a school that has a carnival with a dunk tank, she will gladly volunteer.
2. An area Festival - She has done it in the past and said she would gladly do it again. She said she would have done it this year if we weren't out of town.
3. VBS - Closing carnival and even a day before for game time. If money is an issue, we can rent it.
4. A secluded cabin away - We have been talking about this one for years. Renting a secluded cabin away from anyone and renting a dunk tank and setting it up there away from everyone. She would bring along every outfit that I could imagine in a dunk tank and just have a "Dunking Weekend" where she sits up there almost non-stop and gets dunked in every outfit possible. This could get REAL fun. I'm sure I'd find myself up there a few times too.
5. Son's Birthday Party - Our son has a summer birthday. What better a game at a summer party than a "Dunk Your Mom" game. She's nervous the neighbors would think weird things about it, like, "Why do you have a dunk tank in your back yard?" Uh... it's for a party!! MANY people do this around the country. It's not weird. It's fun.
6. Fan Fest - this one would be fun. The dunk tank there is not a real popular thing (for some reason... it's cheerleaders!! Come on people). Several times, other random people have gotten up there. My wife thought it might be fun to offer to sit up there in an opposing school's t-shirt. A navy blue shirt and grey shorts/pants would look REAL nice wet!!
7. Block Party - It would be easy if the block party was stationed near our house, but since it's down the street, it's kind of hard to ask others to get a dunk tank when they would be paying for the water. We need to shift our way.

So, there are possibilities. We may need to get more daring to get her wet. I would love her to get in several in one summer. That would be awesome!! Hopefully someday soon.
