The Area 53 Committee created an inventory plan in early 2016 which is attached to this news item. It called for a beginning at the assembly on March 13 to address two questions: “Reflecting on the Area 53 Guidelines (Article VII), is the Area 53 Committee achieving it’s “primary purpose?” and “In a general way, is it possible for it to improve?”
The committee expects to start the area inventory at the June assembly. Please review the attached plan and come prepared to help improve the area.

If you are a GSR, you might ask your home group if they are willing to cover some of your mini-conference expenses.
Each group is autonomous in this matter. However, it is a common practice for home groups to provide some financial support for the expenses of their trusted servant. This might include the miniconference registration fee and some of the expense for travel, housing and meals. Attendees often share rides and lodging at the
mini-conference to make attending more practical.
