Calculate Appropriate Payment
Do not write a check for the amount identified on the Internet Recharter website. This fee does not factor in the Insurance fee for units. To calculate accurate fees please use this Excel workbook. DO NOT WRITE OUT YOUR CHECK. Please bring your checkbook with you when you recharter in case an error is discovered. A final fee will be provided to you at your District Recharter Day. A second check will be needed for any new applications that are turned in with the charter so if you have new applications bring two BLANK checks with you.
