Why was the NACCCA merged into Camp Roosevelt CCC Legacy Foundation and not the other way around?

NACCCA was incorporated in the State of California. By the time merger discussions had begun, most of the NACCCA collection had already when broken up and the larger part was donated to the Smithsonian Museum of American History. The NACCCA Board felt that the organization would dissolve after the 75th Anniversary but agreed that they would continue as long as possible. The two Boards had agreed that when NACCCA dissolved the remainder of the collection, would be moved to the new facility in Virginia to save it from further dispersal. When the discussions on joining the two organizations began, it made sense that the organization should be incorporated in Virginia instead of a California; thus, the California corporation merged into the Virginia Corporation. Why were the names changed? The name changes were for totally practical reasons. NACCCA merged into the Camp Roosevelt CCC Legacy Foundation which was considered too local of a name to represent a national organization. NACCCA memb
