Secretary’s Report Karen W. / 504.451.5985

I am still note getting reports from all Subcommittee Chairperson, I would like to remind you that it is a part of your responsibilities to submit a written report every month. Last month, I repeatedly emailed everyone requesting your report and considering that everyone still did not responsd I will not be doing that anymore.

I would also like to let you know that your report is not just sending me a copy of the minutes from your meeting, I do not need your minutes nor do I need of list of who was at your meeting. Your report should consist more of summarizing the status of your committee, what you have done and/or not done, recommendations to the group, etc.

In Loving Service, Karen

Moderator’s Report Sara F. / 229.520.8347

Moderator. Sarah F.open the moderator;s board at 6:00 cst each morning. Closed the board at 6:50 each morning. I would like to thank Marcus. “K”, and Eric for assisting in moderating and getting the announcements out each day.

I encountered fewer problems with the board than the previous months. partly because with experience in moderating I was able to combat many of the situations before it became a problem. Has been an exciting and rewarding experience in my recovery. Certainly has taught me some patience, humility, and tolerance. Thanks for letting me be of service.

This month my duties included 2 flyer deletions from the Events page:

  1. ROTG Labor Day Marathon
  2. Indianapolis Area;

and the addition of WAW Business Meeting Minutes to the Group Business Information page.

A third request for information was sent to POLICY & PROCEDURE Chair and received no response.

No subcommittee meeting was held on Monday, September 22nd

due to my unmanageability and computer problems. I apologize for my continual absences.

An Alternate Web Servant is still needed; please include this in the Meeting Announcements.

The communication with other trusted servants has improved. I want to thank the group for helping me in my endeavors to perform selfless service.

In Loving Service
