Like any other A.A. service, the primary purpose of those
involved in archival work is to carry the message of
Alcoholics Anonymous. Archives service work is more than
mere custodial activity, it is the means by which we
collect, preserve and share the rich and meaningful heritage
of our fellowship. It is by the collection and sharing of
these important historical elements that our collective
gratitude for Alcoholics Anonymous is deepened.
Please
remember the District 1 Archives Committee is available
for displays at your Holiday or Anniversary Meetings.
Keep in mind these Archives belong to YOU
and to all of the members of Pinellas County AA.
When we bring the display, you have a wonderful
opportunity for learning the beginnings of AA and
teaching your newer members how we have grown.
We
are happy to give an
historical talk or just a display for free and for fun!
Archives Committee
is also looking for committee members. There
are several ways you can be of service, interviewing
long-timers, helping with displays, etc.
Please contact the District 1 Archives Chair at
district1archives@gmail.com or Central Office at (727) 530-0415 or
centraloffice@aapinellas.org if you
would like to volunteer or if your group would like an
archives display.

Public
Information / Cooperation with the
Professional Community (PI/CPC) Committee
Last Monday of each month
6:00 to 7:00 pm
Central Office
8340 Ulmerton Road, Suite 220
Largo
Dist1PI-CPC@aapinellas.org
If you are interested in being a
part of this committee, please come join us at our monthly
meeting. Also suggest
your home group elect a "Public Information Representative"
and encourage them to get involved with us. You and your
group can be of real service to help us carry the message to
the alcoholic who does not know who we are, or that we even
exist.
Most groups realize that the alcoholic can't come to AA for
help unless they know where we are........
The committee communicates with professionals
in Health Care, Law enforcement, Treatment, Corrections,
Human Resources, Counseling, Sociology, Ministry, Education,
Communications, & Judicial Systems. It cooperates, without
affiliation, with those seeking to help the active
alcoholic. It provides support and resources to AA Members
seeking to educate Professionals with whom they have
contact.

Quarterly Report - March 12th - Since our last District
Quarterly the Grapevine Committee has had our monthly meeting on
the 2nd Saturday of each month at our Central Office conference
room. Attendance is starting to pick up. We still discuss our
primary mission of increasing Grapevine awareness, boosting
sales and recycling old Grapevines and that seems to be picking
up also.
The results of our Grapevine
survey are back; however, it's way beyond my mental capabilities
to figure out what it says. Luckily, our Grapevine Secretary has
that capability and I've turned that over to her at our
meeting this afternoon. She should be able to decipher it in a
reasonable amount of time and we'll get it out as soon as we
can.
All of our representatives are
doing their best to increase Grapevine awareness and in my
humble opinion, are doing a great job. Don't forget to drop off
your old Grapevines with your group's Grapevine rep. Remember -
let's all do what we can to save the magazine that has saved so
many of us.
In love and service,
The District 1 Grapevine Committee
