Default RE: contest entry fee too high


ORIGINAL: les40

I think we should take a look at how much we're charging to enter an IMAC contest. I see the Cactus Classic is $50. Yeah, I can afford it but what about the guys who aren't at the height of their money making years and are struggling to put a plane together, hotel, transportation, meals etc. Why is the entry fee that high?
How much should we charge? We have been paying $50 entry fees for large contests since 2002. We have never raised the price. It takes a lot of work and money to put on a contest this size. We pay for extra porta Johns, trophies for 5 classes, the winners all recieve a nice embroidered Cactus Classic Jacket.
