Ted G. is the new G.S.R for the Friday Night Stepping Out group at the<br \/>\nCommunity Church, Friday at 7:00pm. Welcome Ted!<\/p>\n<p>Alan gave his<br \/>\ntreasure\u2019s report. There is no hard copy of the report for this month because<br \/>\nAlan\u2019s computer has a mind of its own and decided to crash this week. The total<br \/>\nwe have is $3,836.29. There is $2,334.92 in the checking account and \u00a0$1,501.37 in the savings account. Alan gave<br \/>\nCurtis a check for $32 to pay for the flyers from the last district workshop.<br \/>\nEmily needs to be reimbursed $222.93 for PRAASA funding. Our prudent reserve<br \/>\nfor the district is $1,500. There was a discussion about sending money off to<br \/>\nthe entities we choose. This was tabled until our meeting in April so we can<br \/>\nsee how much money we have left after the area assembly. There was a<br \/>\ncontribution sent in by a Casey R. with no group name or group service number.<br \/>\nIf you know who this is, please let them know and please remind your groups to<br \/>\nput the group service number and group name on all contributions.<\/p>\n<p>Curtis gave his workshop report. He just found out the date<br \/>\nand time for the next workshop this morning. It will be in the Big Room at the<br \/>\nTriangle Club at 4600 South Nellis Blvd. on March 17<sup>th<\/sup> from 2pm-4pm.There<br \/>\nwas a discussion about having the workshop on sponsorship, having two speakers.\u00a0 The first to talk about the benefits of<br \/>\nhaving a sponsor, and the next to talk about the benefits of being a sponsor.<br \/>\nWe need to find our speakers so Curtis can get the flyers made up for this<br \/>\nevent. Emily made a suggestion that we also talk about the benefits of being<br \/>\nand having a service sponsor. Erin volunteered to be a speaker about having a<br \/>\nsponsor. Kim and Ted volunteered to speak on either subject.<\/p>\n<p>There was no picnic report, but we have had two new service<br \/>\npositions filled. Matt is our new alternate picnic chair. Robin is our new<br \/>\nalternate web servant.<\/p>\n<p>The roundtables to discuss this year\u2019s agenda items is going<br \/>\nto be held February 25<sup>th<\/sup> at the T.I.E Club at 329 North 11<sup>th<\/sup><br \/>\nStreet at 1:30pm. Emily will be getting some of the agenda items to make<br \/>\nsummaries and presentations. She might need some volunteers for this but she is<br \/>\nnot sure yet. If you are planning on being at the area 42 spring assembly in<br \/>\nTonopah this year from March30 through April 1<sup>st<\/sup> , please make your<br \/>\nreservations now. The rooms are filling up and the Ramada is already fully<br \/>\nbooked. There was a motion made and passed that this year at the area assembly<br \/>\nwe will not be having our usual District One meeting Saturday at lunch time.<br \/>\nInstead, we will be having pizza and fellowship. Emily will have the check book<br \/>\nin Tonopah for G.S.R. funding. Please remember if you are not funded or not<br \/>\nfully funded by your group, there is money available for you from District One,<br \/>\nSouthern area 42, and Area 42.<\/p>\n<p>There was a discussion on why there was a basket passed to<br \/>\ncollect money for the \u201cdinner\u201d when individual tickets were sold? Emily will be<br \/>\ncontacting Byron our current Area 42 delegate to find out about this.<\/p>\n<p>District one is currently in the middle of a district inventory.<br \/>\nWe continued on this starting with question number two. Do our groups know what<br \/>\nthe district is and what it does? We discussed having our next workshop with a<br \/>\ntitle of AA as a whole and focus on the upside down triangle that is the<br \/>\nservice structure of alcoholics anonymous. We also discussed making<br \/>\nannouncements at our groups about the Service Festival that is being held<br \/>\nSunday February 19<sup>th<\/sup> at the T.I.E. Club, 329 North 11<sup>th<\/sup><br \/>\nStreet at 1:00pm. We moved on to question three. Are the District One officers<br \/>\nfulfilling their purpose? How can they be more effective? Discussion was about<br \/>\nmaking sure if you are a district officer you should try to be at every<br \/>\nDistrict One meeting. You should know all of the responsibilities of your<br \/>\nposition. You should be informed and you should know what is going on in<br \/>\ndistrict one as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>Alan, who is also the current Bridging the Gap chair, made an<br \/>\nannouncement. Currently, Bridging the Gap is under the umbrella of H&amp;I.<br \/>\nBridging the Gap is going to make a proposal that they become a free standing<br \/>\ncommittee. In Alan\u2019s research there are 93 areas with Bridging the gap. He was<br \/>\nable to check out 39 of these areas and in 27 of these are free standing<br \/>\ncommittees. If this proposal goes through, instead of being funded through<br \/>\nH&amp;I, Bridging the Gap will be funded 50% through the area and 50% through<br \/>\nintergroup. H&amp;I is fully funded by the pink cans from the group and that<br \/>\nwas their decision. They believe they will get more money this way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Websites of Interest:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>District One\u2026.http:\/\/www.districtone-nv.org<\/p>\n<p>Area 42\u2026\u2026.. http:\/\/www.nevadaarea42.org<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address of Interest:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Group donations made out to District One and mailed to:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>District One: PO Box 90486, Henderson, NV 89009<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>District One Meeting &#8211; 2\/12\/12 Boulder City Lost and Found Club &#8211; 10:15 am Meeting started at 10:15 with introductions around the table.
