[sac-forum] Re: Waivers

I am not against the waivers or for them, I will vote for them and even sign
one if that is what is best for the club.  I just want us to make sure that
our insurance company agrees with the clubs actions.  They might even have
preformatted waivers that they want us to use.  Also has anyone checked into
the legal statues in Arizona as far as how the courts see waivers.  I know
items was posted about wavers for stables, but most of us do not do
astronomy from horseback. Ha Ha.

How about this?

If we stopped sponsoring the Messier Marathon and either EVAC or some other
group would pick it up or it would never be held again.  

Obviously, the Sentinel Star Gaze would also never be held again.

Also obviously, the club would stop holding public viewing sessions.

Would those three actions be enough to allow the club to continue on in the
same way it has for over 20 years with no legal action against it?

I agree that we need some input from our insurance company, maybe a
representative at the meeting?

Since you did not mention doing this at the meeting, I hope this is not 
saying presenting a case, for or against, is just limited to here, the 
internet.

Is there a speaker for the meeting next Friday? If there is one, then 
maybe having a vote on these amendments should be rescheduled for 
another meeting, a business meeting without a speaker, so that members 
can have plenty of time to discuss all the amendments if they want 
without them, or the president, feeling discussions have to be cut off 
to have time for the speaker. Having said this, more than likely there 
will not be much discussion by members, but I think having plenty of 
time set aside to discuss amendments to the Constitution, a serious 
matter, should always be preserved, just in case.
