* In an effort to help cover some of the expenses of conducting and promoting the Pro/Am Series, the directors approved an “administrative fee” in 2009 that is equal to 5% (not to exceed $50.00)

of any event entry fee. This will allow the Series to continue its tradition of paying back 100% of the entry fees collected. In this instance the “administrative fee” is $50.00 (5% of 1000). Payback will be

based on entry fees of $1,000 and $1,250 respectively.
