BTW Amy, I must have misunderstood the final understanding on “scholarship tickets” (free tickets), which was no need for funding for tickets since they can be processed as <u class="">free</u>; leaving prepaid registration fees in the general CCGA budget, and requesting sponsors to cover expenses other than scholarships. In other words, Sponsor X, in the past, has donated $250 for scholarships and $250 for T-Shirts, can now donate $500 for T-Shirts or whatever. Am I wrong?
