We, the members of the PacWar Board of Directors, have decided to retire. As such we are dissolving the PacWar NPO, and closing out the PacWar bank account. All monies within the account will be turned over to the Black Spire (BS) Prime Minister, but only on the following conditions:
1. The monies turned over to BS are NOT to be put into the general BS bank account, but are to be kept separate from all other Kingdom monies, with a separate bank account opened solely for the PacWar funds.
2. PacWar funds are NOT to be used for ANY kingdom function, or ANY OTHER purpose, other than the annual Black Spire sponsored Inter-Kingdom camping event known as PacWar.
3. PacWar should continue to be ran by the winners of a bidding process, so that a diverse group can be allowed to run the event. The bidding process may be changed/modified by the Kingdom, but bids should be open to all Kingdom Members.
4. Winners of the bidding process should be determined by joint agreement of the Kingdom Offices of the King, the Regent, the Prime Minister, and the Champion.
5. While at this time there is less than $2000 in the PacWar account due to unforeseen added expenses from the KoA PacWar, we feel that this is a minimum amount needed to run an event of this size, and as such, until this minimum is met, all profits from future PacWars will be put back into the PacWar account. Once the minimum of $2000 is reached, and maintained, then profits from future PacWars could be split with the Kingdom account. The Monarchy can decide on how to split profits, but that decision must be backed with an Althing approval.
6. All of the conditions (including this one) are to be added to the Kingdom Corpora as addendum, and may only be altered/removed by an Althing vote with a super-majority vote of 2/3rds approval.
(The conditions listed above will be put into Corpora wording before being put to an Althing vote for approval)
If the above conditions are met, then the PacWar treasurer will cut a check to the Kingdom for all monies in the current PacWar account and turn it over to the Kingdom PM, and will close out the account.
It's been a great 7 years, with ups and downs, successes and failures, and for the most part, good times. PacWar has become a North West Amtgard tradition, and needs to continue to grow and prosper with the Kingdom. While we as PWBoD members may have reached a point that we can no longer give Pacwar the attention that it deserves, don't be surprised if you do not see some or all of us putting in a bid for PacWar in the future.
If you wish to put in a bid please subbmit it now to king shorty or fodder. http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/mysticseas/files/PacWar/
