This year for my son's 10th birthday party, we are taking him and a few of his closest friends to an arena football game. I want to make our own invitation but I need ideas on what to say and how it should look.
I have looked at all different websites and have seen the "sport event ticket", but they were either to costly of you need to have a minimum of 30.
Here is some info regarding exactly what is going to happen that day...
2:45 meet at our house
3:00 leave for the game
4:00 tailgating (pizza, pop, cake, games)
6:00 family fun zone at the arena
7:05 football game
10:00 autographs
11:00 leave arena
11:30 pickup at our house
Does anyone have any suggestion?

Vista Print has a great invitation that looks like a ticket. It is $7.99 for a set of 10. You won't be able to list everything that you are doing that day, but they are really cool and easy to make/use:

Birthday Party?
Amy Clark
My oldest will be turning 8 the end of march and is in second grade. I'm looking for some creative / inexpensive birthday party ideas. Last year we did bowling, but because it was so expensive she could only invite a few kids from school, because all of her cousins were going also. So any ideas? She wants to invite about 20 children this year (i know they all don't come- and i know if i have too i can make her cut down the list) but think it would be fun to have a big birthday party with all of her friends and cousins but I'm a single mom and full-time student and don't have a big budget. Also any ideas for some creative- possibly make yourself birthday party invitations? Thanks in advance!
p.s How early do you send the invitation out? 2 weeks? And also, when I was in school we always took invitations and handed them out at school, but kids felt left out or parents never got them etc.. am i better off to send them to school w/ her or just send them in the mail to their homes
Answer
My daughter turned 9 this year and we usually have the big party with about 20 kids and when it's over not counting the cake and extra decor, gift and invitations & goodie bags it costs us about $200. This year I tried something totally different. I asked her to choose 5 girlfriends, with a little of my influence, and we had a slumber party. It was so much fun and we didn't have a single issue about someone not being invited blues. I printed up the invitations on the computer and glued them to some starry card stock I grabbed at the craft store. I even made pillow case envelopes with "no sew" and starry material, we only used 1/2 yard. There was no particular theme. When they got here we had a scavenger hunt in the neighborhood, I split them in 2 teams and had my mom help watch a group.
After that we had cake and opened presents. We even gave pedicures and manicures with colored polish that we already had and nail stickers from Wal-Mart. A girlfriend loaned us her kareoke machine and they sang to high school musical songs. To wind down the evening we popped popcorn and laid out our sleeping bags and prepared for a high school musical marathon. I also brought out huge candies like you purchase at the theatre that I bought at the dollar tree. In the morning they ate a pancake breakfast and I sent them home at 9:30 so that I could rest up without kids here all day.
With the exception of a dozen balloons and streamers we saved a ton of money. Oh yeah, their goody bags were pillow cases I bought at the factory outlet for $1 ea and they all signed them and colored with Sharpies, left over candy and Bella Sara card packs that cost 2.50 at a learning store. It was a complete success, they still talk about it almost 2 months later.
As for invites, you can't pass them out in class unless you invite the whole class, so we hand delivered them 2 weeks in advance. She loved taking them to the door and giving them to her friends.
