There is no single or family dues just a free weigh-off for the county. We
are trying to promote growing Ags.  We gather monies from local merchants.
I agree with you Brian I like the more the merrier and the whole family
involved.  But no sticks .  But the problem I have is we had 100+ folks sign
up for seed.  So were expecting a bigger weigh-off so I am leaning towards 1
cash prize per family so more families can place.  The 2 per family rule has
really been a pain in the butt cause you have to play police.  Listen to the
singles growers say that there getting the shaft cause they can't double
dip.  And if I change it to 1 per family going to have my best growers that
have been getting the whole enchilada super sized now go on a diet.

And you know how cranky folks get on a diet.  So lets face I can't win.

But I wanted to hear other opinions from out of town.
