There are seven approved pieces of literature. Directories and newcomer packets are also available. If you need these items you can come to the meeting or alert your GSR’s. If you notice that literature tables at your meetings are low on CMA literature, please talk to your literature person, secretary, or GSR about obtaining these items. The literature is also available as a download PDF at cmainla.com

* All committees are in need of volunteers. Volunteering is a great way to be of service and to give back to your community. If you are interested in any other committees, go to cmainla.com and send a message to the chairman of the committee you would like to be a part of or join us at the next district meeting.
