Checks will be distributed at the end of the meeting. Reimbursement for the new referee clinic will occur after you have done 4 youth games.  You need to submit a request for reimbursement from HNSL.  On the request put your name, game numbers, and your signature because this is an official form.  Please be neat.  Give the request to Gary and he will submit it to HNSL for payment.  Dues for membership in LCSRA are due tonight.
