We have authorized K.D. to hire a temporary part-time shipping and receiving clerk for $5.50 per hour not to exceed 15 hours per week. The work Is K.D.’s responsibility. This person was hired early August. Office is 100% caught up and orders received today are being processed the same day.
K.D. will be sent to a DACEASY seminar to further set up the inventory and accounting system. Additionally, K.D. is to maintain her own personnel file with the WSO Board maintaining a duplicate personnel file.
K.D. has been instructed at a meeting with UPS in preparing items for shipping.

- DAVID C.
David C. informed Pam K. on June 6, 1991, that June 6, 1991, would be his last day. On June 13, 1991, a Notice of State Disability Claim Filed was received at the WSO to be completed by the Board which was complied with.
David has sent a formal written request for a payment of $3,000 in lieu of filing a stress disability lawsuit against the Fellowship.
Page 7 of 19
(WSO & LONER’S GROUP – Continued)
I have spoken with David on this matter at length on two occasions in an effort to persuade him to “let it go.” His resentment is enormous, . He claims he intends to “make trouble’ if we do not comply, I feel he wants to make an issue and a disruption for revenge..to get the last word. The more time we spend on this, the more we play Into his wishes.
The options we see are:
Deny the request and wait. This could result in litigating the claim at possible great financial and emotional expense.
Make a counter offer.
No matter how we proceed it is necessary to review our dilemma and probable course of action with the conference.
We are looking for direction from the Trustees.
- FINANCE:
Significant progress has been made In cleaning up the financial reporting systems. Ray has worked his tail off and will cover the status of the work with Steve L, the accountant, and the required tax filings.
A check for $35,000 was received from the Convention Committee.
A copy of letter and deposit for $5,240 from CampVention III was received. Thank you letters were sent to all areas that participated.
Steve L, is drafting a letter to areas who have not recently donated to the WSO. In the interim, was sent out with June 5, 1991 mailing to delegates.
K.D. was instructed to make deposits prior to each board meeting and at least twice per week. Ray G. and Steve L. are to be informed of each deposit.
Steve L. is writing guideiines for the Spending Committee.
The Convention Committee is still holding some money. Their books will be closed out soon.
K.D. has been authorized $100.00 in petty cash with receipts to be turned in at each Board meeting.

An explanatory paragraph will Inform the Fellowship that this pamphlet will be CA’s interim directory.

K.D. is to compile a list of WS Directory back orders and mail directory letters to requestors.
Spanish literature translations were given to Mike P., WS Literature Committee Chairperson.
- LONERS’ GROUP:
Helene H. can no longer serve as coordinator of the Loners’ Group. We are looking for direction from the Trustees and 1991 WS Conference as to how they wish us to proceed, since no one is available to act as coordinator. The cost is significant to have this service.
- PUBLIC INFORMATION:
Mark A. and Todd C. served and then resigned from the position of CAWSO PI Chairperson. Lee A. attended the last Board meeting as Chairperson, and will be following through on all the PI coordinate correspondence received by the office.
