Fundraising fatigue? Can we handle another?

Do they have to be new shoes? Can the school keep a stock of donated shoes of various sizes available? The kids can either keep them or just give them back after the field trip if that's all they were going to use them for.

I know there is an "ick" factor putting on used shoes as anybody who has ever gone bowling can attest, but we all survived that just fine. Any nasty shoes can be tossed out.
