4. A Sports-Theme Silent Auction

Consider adding in a fund-raising component, such as a silent auction with a theme that reflects one of the Super Bowl's teams, to a viewing party. For example, in 2010, a silent auction at a Boston event included V.I.P. Fenway Park packages, a backyard barbecue with Narragansett beer, and autographed New England Patriots memorabilia.

Model Volleyball

Founded and produced by Olivia Ormos and Michael Malone, Model Volleyball expanded from Miami to the Hamptons this summer, where top modeling agencies and professional volleyball players competed in a coed beach volleyball tournament. Held at a private residence on August 6, the event featured a viewing area for guests as well as a tanning oasis courtesy of Wildfox Sun. The tournament benefited the Jack Brewer Foundation, which provides resources and opportunities to underserved populations through sports.
