[QUOTE=On the other hand, if we want the services, someone has to pay for it. Maybe it's past time Airventure pays for it's own party.

I think there is a lot of validity to this point. But also what I don't see a lot of people talk about and I am curious why is why are people not going to the state for some money? As someone who grew up in Wisconsin, the state makes MILLIONS off of airventure every year. It would make sense to me anyway to lobby for some sort of assistance from the state. I am guessing a temp sales tax increase for the week of airventure might be impossible but there has to be something the state can do to pitch in.
