SAC was a guest at Thunderbird park.

Would you like to bet your home that nothing ever happens at the Messier
Marathon?  It might be a pretty safe bet, but not entirely without risk.

Incorporation will not entirely protect the directors.  Would you want to
be a director?

Sure, insurance will cover us.  Will you remain a member when we have to
increase our dues to cover the insurance?  Two years ago it increased
40%.  How much more of an increase will occur if we had a serious claim.

The waiver, insurance, and incorporation are like winter clothing.  You
pile on the layers hoping to beat the cold.
