[Hartwood] White Court

[jamesllewellyn at shaw.ca]

$15 is downright cheap.

When I plan feast I break it down between site cost and food.

I generally charge about $8 per person for a feast so $15 would make it 
about $7 for the site costs.

As an event planner I charge every person who sits and eats the same for 
food....
Off board costs would be only the site component.

So if I was doing it:

Feasters: Adults $15, Youth $11, Children under 12 - $8
Non-feasters (off-board) adults $7, Youths $4, Children free.

And trust me, some teens and children eat a lot.

$15 per adult is reasonable for a sit-down feast, including site fee.
Knowing how much teens eat, I'd do a bit more research on that before
setting the cost for them; I could see under 5 being free. And royalty
being free. I assume you've included a bit for clean-up materials (or
have some) and ziplocs.

Have you given thought to off-board? I saw a request on Facebook, and
there may be others who expect to not eat the feast presented, or will
be last minute atttendees.
