XII. Old Business: Accepted

• District 22 Workshop In October

Zoom or in-person live workshop

Also is Tacony and/or Mayfair/Holmesburg churches even open to having certain events? And if so how much?

Is District 60 still interested in doing a combined workshop?

Are the speakers that we originally set-up still available to speak and/or willing to do zoom VS in-person

Make and Post flyer on Area59aa.org

Packaged food options

• Called Pat F., past delegate, who will be joining us in September to discuss the EPGSA and other area events
• There was an issue with the server that our district 22 website was on. Ron G. helped us originally to create the website for us prior and has now been helping to rebuild it for us. It costs $5/month, which Ron was paying for out of pocket. Would implore reimbursing Ron for prior months and also setting up district 22’s account to pay for future payments. And also to Thank Ron and Tom for their time and service with it!
