A floating Bluetooth® speaker makes an excellent giveaway for an outdoor fundraising gala or employee appreciation event. Hosting a charity race or sporting event?

Host a rubber duck raffle by numbering rubber ducks and placing them in a pool. Guests can pay to pick a duck for a chance to win a corresponding prize.
