Umm, because we're running like 75+ classes? $25x75= $1,875 per event, or
roughly another $5 on everyone's entry fee.
Alternate suggestion - interested people in a class get together and have a pool
for each event, kick in $10 or so and top time (or top cones, depending on the
class) takes it.

trying to.)
