Just curious - how do schools get their budgets in place and approved in your area? In NY, they have to be in place by late May and the district voters vote on the budget mid June. August would miss the boat here.

Quote:
As president of the baseball and basketball chapters, I attended 6 seesions in six consecutive years - and they meet every month. We were trying to get fees raised for tournaments (basketball) and JV games (baseball). My records show I was present in February, June, August, October, November, and January. The chairman told me (six timesd) that: You're too early or you're too late. Honest to God! We've been twice this year, both times at the request of the ADs. We were informed on Thursday last that they had raised the JV fee from $25/$30 to $35. That was their only concession. Apparently, this time we were "just right." Or, they devoted contingency plans to the "raise."

Gas, tires and oil, as the old saying goes. These are function of mileage. Depreciation and insurance are function of ownership. Point is, that the cost of travel to a game is more than just gas. Substitute "maintenance" for "oil" in above and the costs will go up substantially on a per mile basis.
