- Провести лотерею

That’s when it hit me one of my all-time great ideas. «Splotto!» I shouted. «That’s our fundraiser Splotto!»
«What are you talking about?» Drool asked.
«I read about it in some magazine. This school ran a lottery. They divided their school playground into squares, and they sold tickets for each square. Then they got a cow and let her wander around. The person who has the ticket with the number of the square where the cow took the first cow flop won.»
«You think the teachers will let us do something like that?» Drool asked.
«I don’t see why not,» I said. «Other schools have done it. I’ll find the article and show it to them. It’s a great idea. We’ll raise a lot of money, and everyone will get a big laugh out of it. But don’t talk to anyone—and I mean anyone—about this. Until I announce the idea on Friday, it has to be our secret.»
