District Meeting Report

Hello Everyone,
Thank you to everyone who attended the district meeting on saturday. It was a great meeting and with all of the big changes coming up including the changing of the guard in which a new chairperson will step in, I just wanted to say thank you for all of the hard work everyone has done over the last 2 years.

So, on with the show, as they say. The comedy show LOL 4 A Cause, is on track for June 26th at 730pm in Fiesta Hall of Plummer Park. Tickets will be pre-sale only. If you havent gotten tickets yet to sell at your meeting, please call Victor at 323-401-7760 or myself (Dale) at 323-244-8949 and we will make sure that you get some tickets to sell. The show is going to be hot! People will be talking about this one for a long time. With professional comics like Leslie Jordan, Bobby Lee, Adam Barnhardt, Mary Kennedy, Sarah Hyland, and Paul Jacek, it is bound to be a happy, joyous and fierce night of stand up. And, when you add to that lineup, the hosts Lotta Slots (Jeffrey Drew) and Patrick Marks, we are going to have fun.

Also, there is a great event coming up in Orange County called the "Crystal Clean Fest" Saturday June 20th in Costa Mesa at the Community Center at 1845 Park st. The festival goes from 10 am until midnight with marathon meetings till 6, Dinner, a speaker and a dance to follow. the whole thing is only 25 dollars and tickets can be purchased at www.crystalcleanfest.com[

The Hospitals and Institutions meeting is a great way to find out how to be of service to those who cant get to a meeting or better yet, it is a great way for your sponsee to be of service! When they get 6 months, send them down to the West Hollywood Recovery Center on the 2nd Saturday of the month at 1pm to sign up to speak on a panel and then hang out and learn more about the way that this committee works.

We are now weighing the options for a retreat next year and soon we will narrow down the facilities that we are considering for our spiritual outing. Stay tuned.

I will be in touch with updates about ticket sales and any other news coming up in the district.
Just a reminder to all that with the rise of Facebook and other networking sites it is very important that we protect CMA by not mentioning it by name on our personal pages or blogs. We should never connect our face and name with the letters CMA in a public forum. For instance a photo album should never be titled, "Johns 3rd CMA birthday party" or "Pictures from the CMA fundraiser" Just a reminder that anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all of our traditions.
Dale
