Bob provided clarification as to the reason for this policy. Ken Dinkins and
Jerry Newton asked for clarification about this change. Laura Lewis provided
why this is needed to encourage all sponsor to bring students. Pat Stout gave
further explanation. Board asked that the following statement is added to the
policy, “State Sponsor and State Sponsor Elects must register students – only in
extenuating circumstances and with approval of the Council Chair and
notification to the CEO will this policy be amended”. Currently, we pay $1500
for State Sponsor to attend the national convention that is already in policy.
For the state conventions, the State Sponsor receives hotel, mileage, and per
