Legal Question in Business Law in California

For starters, obtain/provide a LOT more detailed information. "Offered land," in what fashion - a grant of ownership of the land? a lease of the land? an easement onto the land? a license to use the land (exclusive or non-exclusive), some other right or interest that gives you access? "Our non profit astronomy club," in what form - a corporation? an unincorporated association? governed how - member controlled? board controlled? "Non profit," of what kind - IRS recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization? 501(c)(4) civic organization? 501(c(7) recreational organization? none of the above? IRS recognized? Not IRS recognized? Does the donor of whatever interest in the land you would be getting expect a tax deduction? Those are just for starters.

Need more information. is your club a valid non profit corporation? Are you offered land to rent, buy, be donated etc. Hard to say what you should do without a lot more information.
