In some states, a check is presented at the annual convention from the local AHA affiliate to the state leadership signifying the amount of Jump and Hoops money returned t
o the state association. There have been numerous questions asking why the check only has the AHA logo, and not AAHPERD logo as well? Everyone in the Joint
Leadership meeting agreed that this would be a simple issue to fix as it is simply a matter of adding the AAHPERD logo. This could be accomplished by adding the AAHPERD
logo to the design when printing the check or affixing an AAHPERD logo sticker to an existing rewriteable check.
