The 3rd event registration money would go straight to FiM. The money for running the event would be raised through local sponsorship and donations.
It is the district that has ultimate fiscal responsibility for all the events in their district. I'm not sure how FiM does it but in the PNW we don't raise money for a specific event we raise money for all district events and the costs for all district events come out of the same account. Now we do have a title sponsor for our DCMP for which they receive naming rights and all of their funds are applied to the DCMP. Of course FiM has their own procedures for handling their finances.
