DISSOLUTION OF CHARTER
No. 1
THE NATIONAL SPEEDSKATING MUSEUM AND HALL OF FAME
Saratoga Springs, Saratoga County
A provisional charter was granted to this corporation under the corporate name “Speedskating Hall of Fame” by action of the Board of Regents on February 12, 2002 to operate a museum on the origin, history and development of speedskating. Such provisional charter was amended by Regents action to change the corporate name to “The National Speedskating Museum and Hall of Fame” on February 11, 2003. Such provisional charter was dissolved by Regents action on May 22, 2007 and approval given for the distribution of the corporation’s assets to The Pettit National Ice Center, Inc., a Wisconsin not-for-profit corporation. It is requested that the Regents clarify their approval of the distribution of the corporation’s remaining assets to specify distribution of such assets to only The Pettit National Ice Center, Inc., a Wisconsin not-for-profit corporation, and to delete the incorrect reference to “the U.S. Government in care of” in the May 22, 2007 Regents Dissolution of Charter. The Office of Cultural Education recommends that the Regents approval be clarified accordingly.
