What you describe is most certainly a safety issue, and I see no reason why 
you could not specify in the class description that only X number of people, 
whether auditors or hands-on participants, will be allowed to enter the camp for 
the class, that people will be admitted on a first come, first served basis, 
and anyone who arrives after the class limit has been reached will not be 
allowed to enter the camp for safety reasons.  You might note that if there are 
sufficient people who would like to take the class but do not get in, you may be 
able to offer it again on another day to those who did not get into the first 
class.

I don't see how that would be contrary to either the rules listed for the 
formal A&S classes or detrimental to the safety of the participants and your 
camp.  It will, however, require you to have someone at the gate keeping count of 
those who enter for the class.
