Old Business: Members of the committee will meet & draw up a job description for assistant to Office Manager.

The search for CSO Board Member continues (really looking for females). An alanon member told Gayle she is interested and will be submitting a resume.

New Business: Archives Project – Lincoln AA History – Construction is nearing completion and it’s time to fill up the displays with donated and loaned items. Discussion about current status of these items. A motion was proposed regarding the disposition of Archives should CSO cease to exist or not want to oversee Archives.

We are in need of support and contributions from the AA community to continue having the Lincoln CSO and Archives and to hire additional office help. Do you want a CSO? Here’s what needs to be done to help out: It’s your AA Birthday — that’s a perfect time to give back to CSO with $1 or more for each year of sobriety as a Birthday contribution. Encourage your meeting groups to pass the basket an extra time just for Lincoln CSO. Consider remembering Lincoln CSO in your Wills and Estates.
