<p>Tim,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>Here are the first set of documents for creating the nonprofit.  I think we have an outcome neither of us thought about by not being a membership organization.  You don't have a membership to vote for Board members!
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>Please see the email below.  Have the Board review the documents and let me know if you have any questions or changes.<u></u><u></u></p>
