Beards/travel expenses

[Mike Lyle]

I'm referring to local associations when it comes to the facial hair. Refs up here in Ak. don't expect to be seen on tv. Beards are almost a way of life here. Yes, you don't see officials on tv with facial hair. No argument from me there. However, the one's I am watching are college refs. I'm talking about high school. As for travel expenses, when we get $100 for a 200 mile r/t travel expense, I take care of my partner if I'm driving. Many of the members don't look at that way. Non stop to the game and return. I've heard of associations that pay 70/30 or somewhere in that neighborhood. Thanks for your responses. M
