I've spoken with folks from the schools, who have been the "host" schools @ the Expo, and the set up to raise money @ concessions is hardly worth the effort. I know I'll get this wrong... but if someone knows the deal, please "chime right in". Something about the host school must provide the concession workers for the whole tournament, then if they go over a certain amount, they get a % of what is made..... I believe after it's all "said & done", that amount is not what has been expected. (again,if someone knows... please feel free to share) It's a great facility and the area is fortunate to have it, however, (and this is just my opinion) I liked it best on a rotation of schools because it gave the tournament a high school flavor. When it was first discussed & polled elsewhere, before BGR was a site... I was not a proponent then either. It does give the kids a "Ruppesque" type of experience... so I guess it's 6 of one and half a dozen of the other!
