Important Announcements from the Steering Committee Meeting:
7th Tradition & Group Treasurer Report
Our Treasurer reports that our net income from 7th Tradition Donations for the month is ($1559.49). We would like to thank our members for their generosity. We are VERY close to meeting our prudent reserve and will resume contributions to OCAA once we do.
From the Board
Minutes from the APRIL 27TH Board Meeting can be found here.
We would like to welcome our new Board Member, Travis! Thank you for being of service.
The Board asks that we refrain from throwing liquid into the trash cans. They are dealing with ongoing behavioral issues and are looking for trusted servants to hand out disciplinary actions. They also have a Lease Attorney looking over all of our leases to see if we can negotiate costs and save us some money,
The Steering Committee voted to support the Board as they implement a Membership. This membership is OPTIONAL, not affiliated with Alcoholics Anonymous/7th Tradition Contributions, and WILL NOT affect the daily meetings. It will be used as a method of generating steady revenue so we can hire a Club Manager and, eventually, purchase a building.
