I'm sorry to hear the the Cascadia group
might be wound down. This is a
group that I wanted to be involved with, but have been unable to attend any
of the meetings or offer help due to having a family & living here in
Portland.
What has the Cascadia group done, besides having meetings on weekday
nights? Would it be practical to move its center of focus here in Portland?

Hi Joe,
I haven't heard anything from Peacray about this in awhile. However, he
appears to be active on English Wikipedia (see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Peaceray), so I
suggest
that you ask him on his talk page.
The impression that I get is that he and Brian lack the time and interest
to continue with the Cascadia organization, and if that is the case and
no
one else is interested and willing to keep the organization alive, then
the
organization should be wound down and any remaining assets (like the
camera
and camcorder) should be handled in the manner that's specified in the
bylaws:
"ARTICLE XIV - DISSOLUTION
"Vote Required. The Corporation may be dissolved by a two-thirds vote of
the Board.
"Donation of Remaining Assets. Upon the termination, dissolution or final
liquidation of the Corporation in any manner or for any reason, its
assets,
if any, remaining after payment (or provision for payment) of all
liabilities of the Corporation, shall be distributed to, and only to, one
or more organizations organized and operated exclusively for charitable
or
educational purposes as shall at the time qualify as an exempt
organization
or organizations under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code as the Board shall
determine by majority vote. Such distribution of assets shall be
calculated
to carry out the objectives and purposes stated in the Articles of
Incorporation. In no event shall any of such assets or property be
distributed to any member, Director or Officer, or any private
individual."
I wish that I had better news. :(

It's mid-March. Has something been filed without the Board having a
chance
to review? Or has nothing been filed?

Joe & all,
I am still working on this. Right now I have a $16.49 discrepancy that I
need to figure out before it will balance.
Yours,

At the annual meeting we were told that the financial statement would be
available in time for Board members to review it before the end of the
year and sign off. I realize we are just coming out of a holiday, but
there are only 5 days remaining in the year, 2 of which are another
holiday weekend. If the report has been posted, I don't see where.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cascadia_Wikimedians/2017_report still
says "To be posted."
