That any new (has not held a WRA, or other racing venue such as CWA or NAWRA meet) club that purchases boxes and holds WRA meets, would be REIMBURSED $100 ON THE DATE OF EACH OF THEIR FIRST THREE WRA MEETS.

5. That the parent club make a $200 charitable donation each year. This could be to the AWC Health Foundation, to a Vet School or other organization that would ultimately benefit Whippets.
