New officers and changes to service positions

John — Thu, 22 Aug 2024 22:56:58 +0000

On 8/8/24 we held our annual elections. The first item of business was a motion to shorten the length of commitment for service positions from one year to six months.

It was pointed out that this would be less daunting and make it easier for people to commit to a service position.

The motion passed unanimously.

We also voted on new service position officers; a full run down can be found in the news section in this post: 8-8-24 Election results

@johna Thanks for the shout out! And have a good visit up north.

I'll be at the church again, key in pocket.

For the upcoming meeting, Thursday 5/16/24, I will be in Napa visiting my mom, so will not be present for the meeting.

I will pick up any donations the following week.

And thanks again to @bobf for helping out with the key!

Hey everyone-

My life is a mess right now, and I really need some help. I don't have the focus to maintain my duties as treasurer, and I really can't keep the key anymore because I'm not able to commit to every Thursday.

Bill and I chatted yesterday and historically the secretary was the one who held the key. However, I know that Mark doesn't live super close to the church so it may be better for someone else to have it.

@BobF you had offered at one point (if I remember correctly) to be the Holder of the Key; if I met you and passed it off to you (and of course we updated the paperwork with Laurie) would you be willing to take that on?

Need Secretary for Tonight's meeting

Hi guys, I will not be attending the meeting tonight. So, someone will need to be a substitute Secretary for the meeting tonight.

Thank you.

Mark T.

@bobf Thank you for looking into this and I'd support a second key, if the group conscience agrees. Perhaps a biz meeting?

Enjoy time with your family and I, for one, am super excited that you will be at the meeting next week!

@everyone :

For Thursday, April 25th:

Mark T. will be absent, we will have a substitute secretary.

Bill M is leading. We will be reading Step 5. (I don't remember exactly where.)

As outlined in another post on the forum, Bob F has proposed that we get another key for the group, details to follow. We may need to have a group conscience on putting down a $100 deposit for a second key, as they are issued to individuals, not to the group.

That's fantastic, Bob! Thanks so much.
Maybe at tomorrow's meeting we can plan out the next week or 2, I'm going to need to take a Thursday off coming up but I want to make sure that we've got enough coverage before committing to anything.

Second Room Key

Gents, I met with Laurie at the church this afternoon. All that would be required for a second key to be issued is a new $100 security deposit. Each key is issued to an individual, not to the group. I am willing to be that individual for the second key - assuming that we’re willing and able to pay the new $100 deposit.

I won’t be at this week’s meeting at all - my son is flying in from Florida on Thursday. However, I’m planning on attending next week’s meeting live and in person in the room. I know, quite a shock! Anyway, we should put this up to a business meeting or a group conscience vote - the key deposit, not my attendance! I really look forward to seeing you all next week! Bob F
