VPL 5 cr- 1497 " .Mi~utes of August 13, 1979 con't p. 2 Cindy Williams reo Liability coverage for recreational activities. Mrs. Williams appeared in behalf of Homer Smith, County Insurance Agent, to appraise the Board of the possibilities of buying back the exclusion for persons participating in, or practicing for an athletic contest (competitive organized sports). County now has liability coverage on the premises and for group play. Medical coverage could be obtained for $5 - $10 per person, but would not relieve county from liability. Buying back the exclusion would cost an estimated $2,000 per year. At this price, the Board feels the county would be most benefited by buying back the exclusion and requested that figures be obtained for consideration.
