Salt River IntergroupMonth-End ReportsApril 13, 2021 Intergroup Business Mtg.4th Tradition checklistEach group should be autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or AA as a whole.1. Do I insist that there are only a few right ways of doing things in AA?2. Does my group always consider the welfare of the rest of AA? Of nearby groups? Of loners inAlaska? Of Internationalists miles from port? Of a group in Rome or El Salvador?3. Do I put down other members’ behavior when it is different from mine, or do I learn from it?4. Do I always bear in mind that, to those outsiders who know I am in AA, I may to some extentrepresent our entire beloved Fellowship?5. Am I willing to help a newcomer go to any lengths – his lengths, not mine – to stay sober?6. Do I share my knowledge of AA tools with other members who may not have heard of them?4th Concept checklistAt all responsible levels, we ought to maintain a traditional “Right of Participation,” allowing a votingrepresentation in reasonable proportion to the responsibility that each must discharge. Do we understand the spiritual principles underlying the “Right of Participation”? What does “in reasonable proportion” mean? Do we understand when it is appropriate for A.A.paid staff to have a vote at the General Service Conference or in our local service structure? Do we expect that, because we are A.A. members, we should be allowed to vote at any group,even if we are not active members of that group?Central Office- Cyndee R.:In Office PhoneHello everyone Some volunteers have returned to the office, YAY. Presently all of the volunteer positions are filled. I am sograteful for the volunteers, THANK YOU!! Please update your meetings with Central Office.
