Overview
Mission
Athletic league for high school sports in the mid-columbia conference located in eastern Washington state.
What it reported doing in 2024
Costs related to putting on playoff events including officals, rent and supplies.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 83% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
