If the Bigs attend, maybe they could pack a picnic dinner to share with their little? Could be a fun tradition to start and simplify planning on your end. There's also lasagna and salad, and you could get those frozen and bake in the oven. Baked potato bars are fun, bake up a lot of potatoes in the oven and bring in all sorts of toppings and maybe even a crock pot of chili as either a topping or another entree option.
Keep breakfast simple, think continental breakfast with fruits, cheeses, yogurt cups and breads maybe? Costco or Sams Club could be your friend there. There are some great breakfast casserole type dishes that can be prepped in advance and refrigerated overnight to bake in the am too.

Thanks so much for the ideas! Sorry for not being specific; only our new girls (60 of them) will be attending, and then about 8 of the older girls to chaperone and help lead all of the activities. It's been a little difficult to plan since we don't have our "official" budget until June 20th, but we're most likely going to get the same as last years and that was $2500. The location comes out to just a little under $2000 and then I budgeted giving each of the drivers $20 in gas money (it's a little far away). It ends up leaving me about $450 for food. I love the baked potato bar idea!
