D.     Fall District Tournament/Play-Off Financial Report – Marilyn reported on the Fall sport tournaments which are now nearly complete.  Looking at gate receipts, it is clear that our tournament income is significantly down.  We brought in $12,800 from second round football games.  We budgeted for $24000.  Our matchups, especially with Eastern Washington teams involved, did not bring in large gates.  Over the last three years, we brought in $18K, $32K, $26K.  So this current income number surprised us.  We need to be looking ahead to next year’s budget and come up with some creative budgeting solutions.
