Now they are wanting more. It is a crying shame to charge preacher and their family to come into service so that they can take up an offering for 3 hours.

Not bad for union dues. Tell them to drop the insurance and your dues will drop a fair amount (just don't tell your elders who are depending on that coverage to bury them that you are going to do it.)
One big problem with conference is that there is really only one offering (first night service) that goes to the expense of the conference. Anybody else remember the resounding thud when Bro. Libby was trying to raise that one.
Guys will be begging not to be asked.
