  23.

  26. Leadership Conference Notes • YourRaiseWasVetoed • A proposal passed on it’s second reading by the Officials • Advisory Committee that would have increased the • maximum official’s game fee by $3 every 3 years. • The proposal was unwisely tied into to a raise justified • by the need to do evaluations. • The FHSAA Executive Board vetoed the need for a • raise to justify evaluations, for they felt evaluations are • going to happen regardless

  27. Lanness Robinson Notes • MUST know your Lawson number to report to the school in order to get paid • No Lawson number means you will get placed on the county’s No Pay and No Assign List • Lawson numbers are a vendor number that you use instead of your Social Security number which helps protect you from identity theft

  28.
