Committee Reports

Telephone: Dee had two calls, Kathy had five calls and Donna had one call.

Newsletter: Laura will continue as editor; Kevin sent articles for Laura to add to the newsletter. Laura updated the Outreach list. All names are now in alphabetical order.

Literature: Nothing new.

Publicity: We are in the September issue of Senior Life. We have flyers for the open meeting on November 3, 2000. We will mail some of these out.

Old Business

Outreach Committee: Dale did visit the Decatur meeting; Mimi has been gone, so has not been able to contact Warsaw and South Bend. We will try for November visits.

PO Box Key: Dale now has a mailbox key, so hopefully we can get mail on a regular schedule.

Sandy: Sandy is unable to attend intergroup meetings at this time. We are all praying that she will be able to return soon.

Sharathon: There will be no charge for a lunchroom if we have the luncheon in the meeting room. There was some discussion about not having a luncheon. This idea was dropped. Kevin made a motion that we have the luncheon in the meeting room. Laura seconded. The motion carried.

November Elections: Suzette has a few names for nominations. Kevin agreed to run for Region Rep. We need two people to audit the books after the November meeting.

New Business

Newsletter Changes: Laura suggested changing the wording on the newsletter to include e-mailing of article submissions as well as sending them to the post office box. Subscriptions will no longer we offered by mail.

Region V Boutique: Laura has about 13 people to help with the boutique. Kevin and Suzette volunteered.

Region V Assembly Reimbursement: The reimbursement of representatives for Three Rivers Intergroup to Region V assembly was discussed. We may need to amend the by-laws to clarify what we will allow for lodging. Marilyn asked that we have more copies of the by-laws made available so more members can read them.

The meeting was closed with the Lord’s Prayer.
