Legal Question in Family Law in Minnesota

Extra Curricular Activities payment

My husband has been ordered to pay child support to his ex-wife for 2 of the 3 children they have. (One lives with us.) In addition to the Child Support, the judge ordered that they each pay the other $250 per year for any extra curricular activities the kids are in upon presentation of receipts. The child that lives with us isn't in any school activities but really enjoys fishing and hunting. My husband attempted to submit receipts for the child's expenses associated with this and the ex-wife refused to pay them. The judge did not specify what constitues extra curricular activities so how can she do this? How do we get this spelled out without going back to court AGAIN?
