Our club offers premiums to folks who work classes. If you work six classes, you get a free T-shirt. If you work three classes, they feed you lunch. We also assign each ring an "enforcer" (usually somebody who isn't running a dog, preferably somebody large and persuasive) whose job is to drum up workers.

We manage to get the necessary staffing! (I have lots of free T-shirts in every conceivable color and design!)

Our club was a small start up, and we went to the bigger established club to help with their trials. It was a great learning experience, and fun, but it really was alot of work. Our specialty club here has trouble getting enough real workers for our specialties as it is, I can't imagine adding something as labor intensive as agility! However, I don't get to make that call, and if we do add it, heck, I'll be out tehre running my rear end off, I'm sure!
