Our October CSR Meeting was held October 10.  The meeting could have been a hybrid meeting, but no members joined via Zoom.  There were eleven people present in-person.

Central Office finances: for July 21 through August 20, Central Office had income of $3,086.10 and expenses of $3,476.90 for a loss of $390.80.

Old business:

1. Service opportunities on the website and newsletter: Adding sections to the newsletter and website announcing opportunities to volunteer within AA would be helpful.  Opportunities outside AA would probably run afoul of Tradition 5.

2. Fellowship activities: lots of good ideas, and we now have an activities committee.

3. CSR Reports put into the Meeting Guide app: if your group wants its CSR report in the Meeting Guide app, contact Carol Ann or I.

New business:

1. Elections of members of the board for TCCOF: two people cannot run, and one is up for re-election.

Announcements:

Tulare Homeless Encampment: two members are taking a meeting to the Tulare Homeless Encampment every Friday afternoon at 4:00 PM.  Contact George J. if you would like to join.
