Present: Becky, LA; Ann; Bay Area; Mary GSA Board; Laurie, Seattle
Update Meetings
We reviewed the development of the joint delegate and board meeting. We discussed the role of the delegate and participation in the work of the committees in preparation for the World Conference meeting. Laurie expressed a desire to be a GSR to the Intergroup and stepping back from the role of delegate. We will be looking for additional GSR candidates in LA and Seattle or from any other face-to-face groups in the area. Laurie and Becky have not been able to attend the training sessions for delegates web site. They will be working together at the January 9th Pacific Intergroup meeting to access and use the site. They will be in communication with Cindy regarding their plan.
Outreach to Face-to-Face Meetings
Mary is proposing the development of "Seasonal Gatherings" in the greater Seattle/Washington area. We are exploring the possibility of a longer, periodic gathering as a format that would support face-to-face experience for outposts and predominately phone uses GSA members. We reviewed a proposal that has been shared with the Seattle Sunday meeting and may be sponsored by that group. Mary met at the business meeting of the Oakland OA group who use the Greysheet and are considering becoming a GSA meeting. It was an opportunity to discuss this option with members of that group. They will be making a decision at their December meeting.
GSAWS Service Positions
We will seek names to propose for Board positions and for additional GSRs in the region. The abstinence requirement is five years btb for the Board, one year for GSR, three years suggested for a World Service Conference delegate.
