Search to the death. Give the kids a mace and let them go nuts. Teach the children that it's not whether you win or lose, it's how many people you have to trample to get there. You can even charge admission and then give it away for free, it makes no difference. In the end though, I have the perfect solution which I believe will double attendance and gratify everyone.
Next year have the parents hunt for eggs and let the children watch.
