| Volunteers often incur expenses in the performance of their LMYA duties that are due reimbursement. Since this is often the only timely way a purchase can be made, LMYA appreciates the courtesy and tries to issue repayment as quickly as possible. However, it is important that requests for reimbursement be submitted quickly, as well. Unfortunately, this has not always happened and the following policy, was approved by the LMYA General Board, on 28 September 1999:
"Absent extraordinary circumstances, expenses must be submitted within 60 days from the final event of the sport for which the expense was incurred in order for that expense to be reimbursed as a matter of course. Any expenses not submitted within the 60-day time frame should be brought before the Board before reimbursement will be approved."
LMYA was established in 1952 and currently operates under by-laws adopted on 15 May 1973. Since then, the LMYA By-laws have been amended several times and a number of operating policies have been written. These include conduct by coaches and spectators; fee discounts for families with 3 or more children participating; guidelines for setting teams; and budget policy. Anyone interested in reading these documents is invited to call Judy McNeil, 299-1961.
