Both of these are examples of poor negotiating on behalf of the association.
People should not "low bid" and sell themselves short just to get a contract, nor is it right to make that money up in a round-about manner.
The second quote is truly disturbing as the association leadership can only contract to cover the contests, but not require the independent contractors to do so. Someone needs to have a stern chat with your association leadership.
