e. Bonding - Things happen so this covers you in case the league money is stolen. For example, we had a secretary held up this summer on the way home from the bank with the league prize money. That is why it is important that the league application is submitted promptly. Think of it as an insurance policy.
f. Tournaments - local and national

6. Remind the League Prize Fund committee that the prize fund must be presented and voted on by the 5th week of league.
