Then dont forget to include the school district personnel to supervise the kitchen. Custodians, no less than 2 for the entire day, plus 1 hour pre, and 1 hour post for prep and clean-up.

This is why all clubs should attempt to establish better relationships with their school districts and administrators. If our club had to pay any of the fees you describe here I would be voting for selling candy bars instead of hosting a tournament.
