I am our "designated filer" with the IRS. As IRS records show, I have been e-filing Form 990-N since 2009. As explained elsewhere in this return, in 2024, SCHGS was involved in a unique, non-repeating activity --- our county's bicentennial celebration. Our County Board of Supervisors asked SCHGS to manage the event for them. Although finances -- as reported elsewhere in this return -- were kept strictly separate from SCHGS own's operating account, the activities were "under the aegis" of SCHGS, and, therefore, I am filing 990-EZ for this one year.
