WCFO MONETARY SUPPORT TO WCFO CLUBS

WCFO supports clubs though the reimbursement of a portion of the entries fees paid by exhibitors for competitive and innovation entries.  WCFO also provides the award ribbons, and high artistic and high technical trophies that are awarded at every trial, and the competition score sheets completed by the judge.  The computer scoring system can also be sent to a club for scoring and placement recording in each event.

A WCFO club may choose to hold a WCFO live or video event.    The first half of the total monies due will be sent to the club along with award trophies, ribbons, and the blank judge scoring sheets.

Upon completion of an event, a club must send to Anna Schloff, WCFO CEO, copies of the judge sheets and also a completed copy of the scoring spread sheet within 10 business days after the event is completed.  The club will also include any day of show entry information and monies received (if applicable)

Upon receipt of the above materials from the club and final reconciliation of the event, the balance of the entry monies due to the WCFO club will be paid to the club.

This process assures that all information is completed, reconciled, and received by WCFO and also assures that title records are completed timely and are current and correct for an exhibitor.
