Cost:  This is an estimated cost due prior to race departure and is based on 12  athletes/4 coaches  participating.  This will change depending on actual athlete attendance and real costs, which will be reconciled once all receipts are turned in and expenses are accounted for.  Adjustments will then be made accordingly.  Please note that Coaches’ expense includes per diem (food) and their portion of lodging.  Athlete lodging is self explanatory.  Divisional manager must be notified upon receipt of this notice should an athlete not be staying with the team.   Transportation is to get the coaches to the event, so all athletes must pay this amount.   Whether or not the coach will have room in the vehicle for athletes must be handled through the coaches.   Administrative expenses are necessary to cover office expenses (paper, postage, Internet, fax, telephone, etc.) throughout the season and wax costs cover divisional wax orders and inventories.   Entries, Lifts and Lodging are self-explanatory, but notify Sherri if you have a Big Sky pass and don't need lift tickets.
