(New Business) –  Ron will contact the Treatment Committee about being reimbursed for expenses at the Corrections/Treatment Workshop last month.

Pockets of Enthusiasm will be sponsoring a meeting at LCF.

When the reimbursement is deposited to our checking account, the Corrections Committee will have somewhere in the area of $500.00. Looking ahead to 2013, that should be enough to meet the expenses of the Committee next year. As such, at this time, the Corrections Committee is not submitting a budget request for 2013.
***They will have a budget for 2013, just will not be requesting additional funds from Intergroup for the upcoming year.
