I agree that becomming a non-profit would be a ton of work for the lug.


I called a couple more folks around town today to inquire about meeting
places that would be suitable for a install fest.  I think for the most
part the libraries are good for the smaller monthly meetings but an
install fest would take a bit more space.  Not to mention bandwidth,
unless we do it all via cd's.

Here is wshat i've gathered so far

Community Schools....


These guys handle scheduling for roo rental for most of the schools around
town.

Commerial Organizations (the lug as it currently stands)
30/hr.

Non Profit
1-4 hrs -> 8/hr
5-8 hrs -> 16/hr
9-12 hrs -> 24/hr

They have space at the downtown high school in the library that would
include internet access and enough table space to accomindate several
computers.

UAS

Non Profit Only

30 for the first 2 hours, I didn't get what the rest of the rate was after
2 hours.  However the dialy rate is 90


All of these places determined if you where non-profit by the tax ID
number.  I checked the irs website and found that according to pub 557 the
user group mwould most likely be exempt from taxes under section 501(c)(7)
pg 49.  if i'm undestanding everything correctly that would enable the LUG
to book rooms as a non profit.  there are some funky things in section i
quoted above like limited memberships and closed facilites, so i'm
uncertain if that's the right section to be looking at.  However I i'm
sure there will be something in there that would be appropiate.

Still interested in a install fest?  Does someone have room at their place
with a cable modem?  I'm still hopping one of the UAS clubs would be
interested enough to host one for us.  I talked to Sarah at the student
activities and recreation office and was given two possbilites.

UAS Gaming

UAS Macintosh Users

I have the phones number for Aaron and Ivan if anyone is interested.  I've
called Aaron's place and left a message explaining what i'm hopping to
acomplish.
