Following a requirement from the Mid-Penn Conference that all PIAA officials working in any sport to obtain personal liability insurance coverage, the Eavenson Chapter now has a $1 million dollar policy contract for each of its members.

The new insurance requirement from the conference came on the heels of PIAA dropping blanket liability coverage for all officials as of the beginning of the 2019-20 school term.

After surveying several options, including having all members join the National Federation of High Schools with its included insurance policy, chapter officials opted to purchase a policy from a separate insurer that deals with multiple sports and leagues throughout the country. The coverage also includes hospitalization in case of accidents in addition to the required liability limits the Mid-Penn demanded. The costs were very reasonable, with minimum limits, and amounted to approximately $13 per member. The policy covers both the track and cross country seasons for the calendar year 2020.
