Incorporation

[Bob and Judy Holmes <jbholmes@nwlink.com>]

To expedite the incorporation process, I'd like to fill out this form and 
send it in to the Secretary of State office rather than wait for the board 
meeting, if that's OK with the rest of the board. It's pretty 
straightforward (for a government form) but there are a few things that we 
need to iron out.

(by the way, if you want to look at the Application to Form a Nonprofit 
Corporation form, you can see it at the Sec. of State website 
www.secstate.wa.gov/corps )

I called their office and they told me it takes about a week to complete 
the incorporation process, or we can expedite it to one day for an 
additional $20. Might be worth it.

We need to decide what to do with our assets in the event of a voluntary 
dissolution. We must select another nonprofit corporation to pass them on 
to, such as a hospital, university, another club etc. Any ideas?

Under "purpose for which the nonprofit corp. is organized" I thought I 
could distill something out of the statement that appears on our website 
and newsletter under THE GREATER SEATTLE AQUARIUM SOCIETY.

I have talked to them about the definition of "registered agent" and 
"incorporator", and I can sign for both.

The Sec. of State phone # is 360-753-7120 and then select 5 to speak with a 
human being, if you have any questions.
