Mr. Tracy:
I am not at the top however I am an elected officer of USAW Kansas Kids, Inc. and also serve on the Corporate Board. I will address several of your concerns.

Online registration will arrive in the future. USAW Kansas has an additional $5.00 per card surcharge in order to fund our other programs. The other programs include scholarship monies provided to the collegiate wrestling programs in the state, the womens program, the olympic wrestlng styles, etc.

At the annual meeting a financial statement for USA Kansas Wrestling and the Kids Division are included in the club packet provided to each club director. The financial statements are also available on the website.

Last year the Executive Council did review bids from Hays, Topeka, and Wichita as host's for the Kids State Tournament. The Hays proposal was eliminated do to size of their arena. The Topeka proposal was selected as it was $15,000 cheaper than the Wichita proposal.
There was some type of gift provided by the Topeka contingent however I do not know the value of the gift as I DID not receive one.
