Lightbulb D.S.C.C. Incorporation

I have spoken with Pres. Jerry Rowley and we both feel very strongly that
the DSCC should be incorporated. We had at least two unauthorized track
crossings (by non-DSCC members) during our last Gainesville event. If one
of our cars had struck someone, the club and it's officers could be held legally
responsible.
I have contacted a former employer and close friend who is a Florida attorney.
The state filing costs are 150 dollars plus his fees. I don't think he'll charge
very much as it is a standard package.
Unless I have an objection and an alternate plan of action, I will continue
along this course of action. I will present their office with our officer list and
basic structure documents next week. We will also need an office of record
address. Since we will be incorporated under FL laws, I suggest either
Ruble Moore's address or my post office box unless someone else wants to
step up to the plate.
I think we're all agreed that we want more track events. Incorporation seems to offer the best legal course of action to allow us to drive fast safely, and legally.
