Newsletter Chairperson

Purpose:

To provide a monthly newsletter to District 23 and an electronic copy to the Technology Chair

  3. Solicits articles from AA members for use in the newsletter.

  4. Electronically sends the newsletter to the printer in a pdf format and in a timely manner.

  5. Physically picks up the newsletter for distribution at the monthly District 23 meeting so GSRs can take back to their groups.

  6. Electronically sends the newsletter to the webmaster for uploading to the website. This should be done shortly after the monthly meeting allowing district committee chairs and GSRs to have access first. The remainder of the newsletters are taken to Chapter VI and placed in the literature racks.

  7. Previous journalism experience is not necessary, only a willingness to carry the message.

  8. The Newsletter belongs to all members of District 23. Therefore, it must at all times seek to enlighten, entertain, educate, and inform the members of the District in an honest straightforward manner.

  9. The time to do this job depends on how many fingers that you can type with. It usually takes about 2 hours per week. For each issue, the work typically adds up to about 8 hours. Please note that issues are currently monthly.
