I've seen a guy start a 30-60 by standing on the left rear wheel and using his foot to turn it over. The owner said that guys have been thrown through the canopy doing that if see backfires. I guess it pays to have her tuned up and timed right. :)

There has been nothing built yet. In a perfect world, having the project completely paid for before we build would be great, but we also want to see and show some progress.

Thought I would update this. We should have our lease finalized with the county by the end of this year (gotta love lawyers). We our tentatively planning on a 80' wide, 180' long steel framed structure. One end would house a 45' x 80' space for a conference room, restrooms and office. This is a large project and we need financial support to make this project a success. If you feel you can help, you can find information on our website: http://www.rumelyallis.com

Reading my response to Fred's question above, I should have said:
"At this moment in time The Corporation is controlled and managed by the Board of Directors and its Officers."
And when the time comes:
"We will have yearly memberships available at some point in the future, and the plan is that those Members would then become the controllers of the corporation and the Board would manage the Corporation and Center according to the wishes of the members."
Controlled and controllers may not be the best legal description either. I am not a Lawyer. Sorry if I am confusing anyone.

Yes, I think this would be correct.

Bringing this back up. We need everyone's help to make this a reality. If anyone has any suggestions to help the fundraising effort, would be glad to hear them. This project is going to take some major donations in order to build the Heritage Center. Thank You everyone that can help !

The Rumely Allis Chalmers La Porte Heritage Corporation is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit as registered through the Internal Revenue Code. So Yes we are a Non Profit Corp.
At this moment in time The Corporation is owned and managed by the Board of Directors and its Officers.
We will have yearly memberships available at some point in the future, and the plan is that those Members would then become the owners of the corporation and the Board would manage the Corporation and Center according to the wishes of the members.
We are in the process of completing a 99 year lease for $1 per year for the property on which the center will be built that is being made available by the County of La Porte, Indiana. The Rumely Allis Chalmers La Porte Heritage Corporation will have complete control of the Center and Corporation.

Hey Chris, Thank You for your interest ! I will look into if the board would want to do online payments. As of right now we have not taken that step. I would be willing to set it up, but I can not authorize it without our board approving it. Several members of the board are not up to speed on the internet process so it may take some time.
Thanks, Randy Freshour.
