Outreach Chair, Ian S.: As Chair of the Outreach Committee, last month I attended the first Mini-Conference Ad Hoc Committee meeting, along with the Bid Committee Chair, Co-Chair, and, Events Chair. We made a good beginning. I look forward to seeing the Mini-Conference through to fruition. We all have a lot of work to do. All month I’ve been announcing the 80s Prom event. I have received from the Men’s Treatment Subcommittee Chair contact into for the head of a large treatment center in Eastern Missouri. I have also received contact info for the Alanon Family Group’s service structure. Unfortunately, I have had very little free time to pursue the afore-mentioned contacts, due to personal concerns, including a new job. I hope to make those contacts soon, as well as finalize the treatment center contact list for a mailing in January.
