***********************************
Posted on NHAA, at 73 rd General Service Conference. All the information is explained
that everyone in AA is welcome to be a part of this year’s Hybrid Assembly on March
25 for the upcoming Conference for the committee of USA & Canada getting
together in NY NY in April.
And there will be a short, online survey March 31-April 15 online

*******************************************
Grace & I went to &/or talked with the GSRs of all the meetings in District 7. They are
now up to date online. Changes take about 2 weeks to be fully up to date. If a new
meeting is posted it takes about a month till it is posted. They must make sure there
really is a meeting there, that it is AA, etc.
*************************************
There seems to be a problem going on with a lot of meetings named the same thing,
like The Big Book Meeting, in different districts. For a newcomer that can be unsure
which one is the one for them to go to. A group of people will be working on that to
figure out a way to make that easier for people to find meetings online.
********************************
With some districts getting so large and some still small, they are thinking of
changing the sizes of districts. Like Manchester and Concord having a lot more
involved than our area. So changes may be coming this year.
