TRUSTEE COMMITTEE REPORTS:
- World Service Conference Reports
Structure and By-laws – Bob Lemon
This committee hasn’t met, but they are proceeding with the mandates from the Conference. The manual is being worked on. Brian needs minutes from the second conference.
Literature, Chips and Formats – Reggie LeMay
The committee met October 15, 1989. The concensus of the Conference
Literature Committee was to implement a more efficient way to get 1iterature approved by 1) having the concept approved; 2) have a team of writers, including members of the trustee committee and the conference committee, to oversee the draft; and 3) have the draft further examined by the WSO publications committee. A letter was sent out to the conference participants from the literature sub-committee in Tulsa Oklahoma requesting input on “The First 30 Days” pamphlet, the Traditions and suggestions for an anonymous symbol.
Finance – Greg Dobbs
They haven’t met as a committee, but a small group has met in his local area and discussed compiling a pamphlet for Q & A on finances. They have also discussed printing pre-addressed envelopes for contributions. There has been difficulty in getting the committee chair to respond. H. Lee felt that some procedure should be drawn up to deal with chairs becoming inactive especially when the Conference is a long way off. Helene felt that the Conference Committee should set up some guidelines for this problem. Fenn felt that when the
Page 3 of 12
chair defaults, the Trustee on that committee could appoint a new temporary chair. Greg said that it’s the Trustees responsibility to appoint one until a group conscience from the committee can be reached to vote in a new chair.
Hospitals and Institutions – H. Lee Slavin
This committee is talcing suggestions for what to work on next. Bob suggested addressing H&I collection cans at meetings.
World Service Conventions
////Jack Perry – New York ’89
Thank you notes have been sent to Rhonda who was the Convention Chair. The rest of the money has been requested and should be in next week. It’s approximately $2700.
////Ray Grossa – Arizona ’90
Ray has been, attending monthly- meetings in Arizona. It is moving along well, however the fundraisers have not been financially successful. $389 was raised at a dance and they are doing something at least every other week. The deposit has been sent to the hotel and it has been requested that it collect interest in the interim. The spending committee is in place and consists of 5 members. The committees are using New York’s information. There have been some internal problems and they have been aired. The Convention committee met 3 times in the last month. They are getting the registration forms done. The Conference Convention Committee Chair is very energetic and committee guidelines are being put together in a manual.
////Reggie LeMay – California ’91
Reggie has met with Tina and Greg at the Convention site in Anaheim. People from the different Southern California areas were consulted in selecting the site and they have had a walk-thru. The contract was signed this weekend. Room rates will be $69/night. There will be an estimated 3,000 people attending. Darrel from Los Angeles was selected to be the chairman for this convention and Sherry from Orange County and Mark from San Fernando were selected to co-chair. Greg said they have negotiated 500 gallons of free coffee. This has been the best contract negotiated so far.
Conference Committee – Fenn Pervier and Helene Heurtin
Minutes from the committee meetings during the Conference aren’t done yet, but the minutes from the Conference floor are done. The summary of motions from 1988 have been corrected and changed. New proxy forms are ready. A letter has been mailed to committee members regarding the forms. The bills from the Conference have been gone over, corrections made and adjusted. The checks were taken to Stouffer’s yesterday. There were loopholes in their contract. Fenn felt that he learned alot from this and has seen the importance of getting a very detailed contract and everything in writing. Tina has been a great help. There has been good participation and contact amongst committee members. The possibility of changing the dates of the Conference next year will be discussed due to problems of booking the hotel. Fenn has a proposal from Radisson for next year. The Trustee Conference Committee will send out a letter to the delegates informing them of the change, if necessary. The transcriber did a great job and she has requested that she can monitor the taping of the next Conference to avoid some of the problems she encountered. The minutes from the

Public Information – Jennifer Rice
There are 20 people on the PI Committee. The letter dated 8-21-89 from Carla I. was submitted to the Board and sub-committee breakdowns were included. Carla I. will be taking a leave of absence until January 1st, at which time Carla and Jennifer will re-evaluate her position. A sub-committee is researching anonymity breaks and how AA handles them. They have also completed a format for speaking at non-CA groups and they are ready to copywrite the PSAs upon receipt.
2) Trustee Legal Committee – Jack Perry
Jack spoke to Bernie about registering the CA name now that the Dr. Baron case has been settled. It will cost about $1800 in foreign countries and it is necessary to go ahead and do it in Canada. Jack has committed to this. An opinion letter was received from the attorney regarding incorporating and it stated that each area should incorporate. CAWS, Inc. has been given an extension through December to re-activate their non-profit status. Mary has been asked to send copies of all of their correspondence to the Trustees. Notice of publication should be coming soon in regards to federally trademarking the CA logo as of 10-6-89. Texas is in the process of incorporating and they are almost done. Greg read some information from AA in regards to incorporating and is considering using some of this information from them in their previously mentioned pamphlet and will consult Jack on this. Bob would like to work with Greg on this too.
3) Trustee Literature and Publications Committee – Reggie LeMay This committee has been largely inactive. A possible procedure for new literature was to have input filtered to this committee for evaluation, pass it on to the Conference Committee to work on and then submit it to the Conference. This committee also wants to work with the other Conference Committee. It was very disheartening that no one responded to the literature mailed out before the Conference, but had plenty to say at the Conference.
////Connection////The new issue is ready to be reviewed. There are still left-overs of the last issue. Only 238 were sold and 3,000 were printed. Cost has been excessive, but they will be working on cutting the cost and expediting the printing. Distribution is still a problem. They will try to come up with a credible plan by the end of the year to get input on content, art-work, ideas, distribution and formulating some more aggressive selling tactics. Subscriptions have been sent out and some of them were returned. A list was made of the returns and given to the Trustees to see if they can locate these people.
////Newsgram////All articles haven’t been written yet. There hasn’t been an issue since the Conference, but there will hopefully be a new one out in early December. Reggie requested input for this publication too and hopes to have it more on track by the end of the year. Bob brought up the possibility of getting good writers to work on this and Reggie suggested even hiring editors. Greg felt that this could generate income. Between February 1, 1990 and February 15, 1990 flyers for the CA Story Book will be out. Ray felt that the new literature presented at the Conference may have met alot of rejection because some people felt it was to be fine tuned, not rewritten.

4) Trustee Conference Committee – Fenn Pervier
This has the same report as the Conference Committee. They still have the same people on both committees. Ray asked if Fenn wanted to keep it on the agenda. Fenn felt that the committee should exist, but it doesn’t have to be on the agenda.
5) Trustee Finance Committee – Jack Perry
Mary will be sending the monthly financial reports to the Trustees. There was discussion of establishing a prudent reserve for the office. Fenn felt that there should be a prudent reserve for the Conference too.
6) Trustee H&I Committee – H. Lee Slavin
The Chairman left the Trustee Committee and went to the Conference Committee. This committee is inactive. Discussion ensued about keeping both committees going.
7) Trustee PI Committee – Jennifer Rice
Mark Anderson’s letter to Jennifer was submitted to the Board. Some guidelines are being set for getting the billboards going. The originals of the 3 video PSAs are at WSO in a fireproof safe. The PI packet will be ready for WSO and sent out to the areas with a fact file when necessary. They will need a lot of support in the event of a major media event 1 ike the Ann Landers column, The dilemma of what to do with people in areas where there are no CA meetings was discussed since they cannot be referred to AA or NA and the Loner’s Group is not in place yet. The President of NBC’s reference library wanted a national directory. It would be specified that it is not for publication. WSO informed this committee that the phone number of the office can’t go on PSAs. P.R. isn’t going to work if there isn’t a place to refer the respondents to. Mark wrote a letter to the Trustees suggesting an 800 number with computerized answering machine. Minutes from the September 24, 1989 WSO committee meeting were submitted. The Loner’s Group needs to be accelerated if they aren’t going to refer people -to other fellowships. Greg brought up the listing for WSO (411) and his difficulty getting the phone number.
8) Trustee Unity and Identity Committee – H. Lee Slavin and Reggie Le May
No report. No communication.
Meeting adjourned for lunch at 1:05 pm.
Re-called to order at 2:25 pm with quiet time and the Serenity Prayer.
CHAIRPERSON’S REPORT – RAY GROSSA
Ray has had 151 phone calls (which is down from the last meeting) and has attended 12 meetings. Ray expressed that the Trustees need to interact more with WSO. The Newsgram and Connection also need more Trustee support. Fenn expressed a desire to attend a WSO Board Meeting at least once between quarterly meetings.

AA REPORT – JENNIFER RICE
Jennifer would like to see this report stricken from the agenda since everyone is making their own contacts. Greg suggested leaving it on the agenda with no one’s name by it and then anyone can give a report.
WSO REPORT – HELENE HEURTIN
Tony C. and Steve P: have resigned. They said they would stay until someone took their place. Bill Z. has been attending meetings and has become a member of the Board, Steve and Tony have not attended the last 2 meetings. Mary is getting better about calling Helene for input and decision-making. There is still conflict between David and Mary. The office has discussed getting an associate editor for the Newsgram as well as making the Newsgram and Connection more cost efficient. The back issues of the Connection that haven’t been sold will be donated to H&I. The 18 month chip will be black. A letter is being sent to Conference participants regarding donations which Helene read to the Board. Copies of the Hazelden pamphlet were submitted to the Board of Directors requesting their input for the letter the office will be writing regarding this, Mary is going to try to get sample materials for the banners as well as a proposal. The World Directory is being put into the office computer by David. The PI Committee’s letter regarding an ‘‘800” number was voted down by the Board, Call waiting has been implemented in the office to increase the number of incoming lines to 4 instead of 2. Starter kits have gone out to Russia and Bolivia. The 3rd quarter financial report was submitted to the Trustees. Helene has requested year-to-date totals to be present from now on. A financial statement from the Conference was also submitted as well as a dollar value of the current office inventory and an activity report for August through October ’89. A motion was made at the office to set aside $7500 for the ’90 Conference and there will be a phone vote to follow. The spending committee has 3 people so far and is still being worked on. The 13 suggestions from the WSBT will be reviewed and evaluated once the new Board is in place. More involvement of the directors is needed. Federal tax-exempt status has been attained. There have been tremendous problems with the postal service so Helene wrote a letter to them and received little response. The PO Box will be dropped. Taxes for the 3rd quarter are complete. Job descriptions for the directors are done but not typed. Metal chips for higher years are not in demand yet so they aren’t being done. The literature hasn’t been copywrited yet. Bernie said it needs to be done, but it isn’t urgent. The turnover of literature is 1.8 times a month and it’s being ordered in quantities of 10,000. After the New Year, Board meetings will be opened up to area Chairs again. The mail addressed to the PO Box will be forwarded for 18 months to the office once it’s dropped. Helene will get a copy of NA’s meeting in the mail and go over it with Pam. Greg felt that constant recruiting needs to be done and the Board members could get assistants. Greg also suggested an LA PO Box. The contract with Wendell’s isn’t getting done. Helene will make another attempt to motivate the director assigned to this and do it herself if necessary. A list of Chair’s phone numbers are being compiled to address the issue of bounced checks.

WSO REPORT – REGGIE LE MAY
The WSO computer now has Q&A with the Connection mailing list and delegate mailing list. Bill Z. loaded the operation system on the computer and it’s now capable of formatting disks. David is using the computer. BillZ, is on the Conference Literature Committee and will be a real asset to the office. Reggie suggested putting him as overseer of the office’s publications committee. Reggie made a proposal to give Mary a vote at the Conference. He also felt that Bob’s talents exceed the position of Treasurer and he should be utilised more. Reggie recommended that David report to Mary and Mary report to Helene. He also felt that Tina should be considered for a volunteer position at the office or a part-time employee. H. Lee suggested sending a letter to Mary thanking her and expressing the Trustees’ support.
WSO REPORT – RAY GROSSA
Mary would like the position of Treasurer on the Board of Directors as well as remaining the office manager. Communication between the two boards is lacking. Helene will present a new Board to the Trustees for approval tomorrow. Penn suggested having one Trustee make a WSO report. Ray said that separate issues should be addressed by Woo Chair and observing Trustees.
REGIONAL REPORTS
1) Atlantic South – Jack Perry
Jack spoke with John, the delegate from Atlanta, who said they’re going to have a Convention there and 30% of their profits will go to WSO. They have voted to adopt the 70/30 Plan and buy chips from WSO.
2) Southwest – H. Lee Slavin
Louisvilie, Kentucky now has a meeting. H. Lee has had contact with Alabama, Louisianne, Oklahoma and New Mexico. He will also be attending the area service meeting in Houston. There are now 60 meetings in the Houston area. There is very low participation at their GSO, There are 7 meetings in Galveston and they are represented at the Houston GSO regularly. Their Convention made approximately $2500/net.
3) Trustee-at-Large – Bob Lemon
Bob has talked with Chris P. from Oklahoma and they are in touch with Little Rock, Arkansas.
4) Pacific North – Fenn Pervier
The Northern California area level is suffering financially from implementing the 70/30 Plan. Financial and Spending Committees are not in place and are not functioning. The Convention scheduled for October ’89 was cancelled after the earthquake and the hotel gave the Convention Committee the option of backing out which they did. The memorabilia for this convention was privately financed, so some members are in a bind. (the money didn’t come from areas or districts) Fenn will suggest that the memorabilia be sold at cost.
Page 8 of 12
Salt Lake City called and asked Fenn what to do about their delegate resigning and they also wanted to establish H&I. Fenn hasn’t contacted people north of California lately.
5) Midwest – Greg Dobbs
Last weekend their first regional convention was held and was successful. They exceeded the expected number of rooms by 3 times and used another hotel for overflow. They had a speaker from Nebraska and approximately 300 people for the banquet which was a record-breaker. Atlanta’s contract was sent to Greg which he reviewed and gave his input on. The Chicago area’s office has moved again. Greg got a call from Michael K. who received a letter from someone in San Diego with a flyer inviting them to come and see Bobby Earl. The letter was signed by a San Diego Board member who used their title which seemed vengeful. The San Diego Board was unaware of this.
6) Pacific South – Reggie LeMay
The Southern California regional delegate meeting was held September 11, 1989 and had pretty good participation. The possibility of forming a district and abolishing existing areas was discussed. The next meeting will be December 16, 1989 in Orange County where a business plan will be presented for re-districting. Reggie attended meetings in various areas where re-districting was discussed. The Inter-area has approximately $5,000 from the Campvention and will use part of the money to throw another one. South Bay area had $1600 embezzled and the bank is involved. The Chairman said they will press charges. They have an attorney involved for consultation. The Orange County Convention lost approximately $10,000. They only had 350 registrants and they felt that the meeting population is dropping too. They feel they are solvent. Orange County needs some re-structuring. A T-shirt is being circulated in South Central LA in red, black and green with a semblance of the AA/Alanon symbol integrated with CA lettering. This was not a district approved T-shirt.
7) Pacific South – Ray Grossa
Ray thanked Reggie for his activity in the delegate meetings. Other areas seem to be waiting to see what LA is going to do first. Unity is being built, but there is some insanity going on. There are alot of fundraisers. Conventions are rampant which could be why Orange County’s flopped. Orange County’s support of World Services is getting better. Orange County and the Inland Empire are both losing meetings and there doesn’t seem to be an apparent reason. There may be a need for a third Trustee in this region soon. Bob brought up an area that he is familiar with that has formed an adhoc committee to investigate the decrease in it’s membership. They are looking at what they have to offer in the way of recovery and how they can improve it. Fenn suggested writing a letter to the editor of the Santa Barbara paper to respond to the article they published about CA that had alot of misinformation in it. Greg suggested sending letters to the publisher and writer too and make clarifications. A consensus showed that PI should handle this matter, Jennifer felt there should be a form letter to handle these types of situations and she will get PI to work on one.

8) Atlantic North – Jennifer Rice
Syracuse has contacted Jennifer. Their 7 meetings are ready to fold. She is experiencing a drop off in membership in her region too. Jennifer attended the wrap-up meeting for the New York Convention. It was brought up that no thank-you notes have been received. Jennifer felt that host areas for the WS Conventions should get thank-yous. She has been looking for solutions to the drop off of meeting attendance. The AA pamphlet entitled “The AA Group” should be looked at. Something needs to be done.
OLD BUSINESS
- Bob brought a copy of the policy for liability coverage for CA sponsored events from Monterey County and Jack looked it over. It covers all meetings and events. Bob would like Jack to call the insurance agent and get some more information from him. Bill Z. has a contact person who could look this over since they write policies of this sort. Bob and Helene will work on this.
- Regarding interpreters for the deaf: Bob will give referrals to WSO, but hasn’t done so yet. Jennifer asked that he coordinate this with the PI committee.
- Ray will look into the San Gabriel area’s way of handling fundraisers. H. Lee will present some guidelines for doing fundraisers.
- A copy of the opinion letter from the attorney regarding incorporating will be sent to WSO. Directives need to be written on the information included in this like tax filings, corporate status, etc. and the effect this will have on re-districting.
- A letter containing the directives that were agreed upon in regards to giving out the non-profit number, needs to go into the WSO manual.
- Jack, Greg and Bob are going to work on addressing the issue of unincorporated areas not filing tax returns in Greg’s previously mentioned pamphlet. They could present it to an attorney for an opinion.
- Jack will contact Bill Z. and Steve F. to discuss their disapproval of the starter kit letter and find out the exact problems they have with it.
- Most of the Trustee’s articles for the Newsgram haven’t been written yet.
- Ray wi11 investigate special events that aren’t connected with CA.
- The Conference approved literature and documents would get the seal attached only at the office so that this can be monitored. The literature should have a statement saying “Conference Approved Literature. Greg suggested a letter to the Newsgram outlining the
Page 10 of 12
proper usage of the Conference Approved logo.
- The Florida fellowship had someone from Atlanta show up at their GSO meeting and give them a different format that contains some possible tradition breaks and the person from Atlanta was adamant about it’s use. They will send a copy of it to Helene and , she will give a full report at a later time.
NEW BUSINESS
- Ray received a call from Rhonda in New York. They are in a financial bind and wanted to know if they could split the money from their Dance Around the World 50/50 with WSO and themselves. This is a Conference matter since the Dance is Conference approved. A concensus was reached to express to them that if they need the money, they shouldn’t go under the guise of a World Service event, and they should probably have a separate fundraiser (which could be held on the same date).
- Helene received a phone call that one club had 22 meetings in it and they send 22 GSRs to their GSO. Concern was expressed. Houston’s clubs send 1 GSR and they consider it one group. A consensus of the Board backed this up.
- An order form for PSAs has been written and they will be sending out a request for the non-profit status form with the order.
- Bob said he isn’t sure how to handle the outreach to minority groups and would like some help. There is one Spanish speaking meeting. Reggie likes the idea of service meetings and thinks some kind of statement should come down from the Trustees stating that CA is not about No literature seems to address this clearly, Ray brought up the actual outreach and how to go about it. WSO needs to get literature translated. Greg suggested getting the PSAs dubbed too. Ray asked everyone to think about this and try to come up with some ideas by the next Trustees meeting,
- The Radisson Plaza Hotel was presented for the next 2 Conference sites. Fenn went over the facilities that would be available. The dates would be August 26, 1990 (for the beginning of the Board of Trustees meeting) through September 2, 1990. The room rate would be $74/night plus 8 1/2% sales tax, however, a copy of the tax-exempt letter has been given to them so there shouldn’t be any taxes. Tax rates could be changed due to city or state regulations. There would be one comp room per 50 or 1 junior suite for the regular room rate. A proposal was submitted to the Board for a 2 year contract which was discussed. Helene felt a decision needed to be reached this weekend in order to give out the information to the participants so they can schedule their vacations. Ray suggested implementing a Trustee Negotiating Committee headed up by Greg to negotiate contracts for Conventions and Conferences. Ray wants Greg to look over the contract prior to signing. A motion was made to accept the dates of August 26, 1990 through September 2, 1990 for the WSBT meeting and the Conference. Seconded and passed.

NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED:
- The structure that stands for electing Trustees wasn’t used since the regions didn’t come up with candidates. 12 candidates were nominated from the Conference floor and 2 will be selected for trustee-at-large positions. 8 or 9 candidates were interviewed at the Conference and 2 or 3 had already been interviewed from the prior slate. There should *ve been a second interview conducted and it wasn’t done. One candidate hasn’t been interviewed. Candidates were discussed and the concensus of the Board was to put off the elections since there wasn’t enough interviewing time with the candidates. The Nominating Committee will handle conducting the rest of the interviews and the second set of interviews. A consensus was reached that there needs to be a 2/3rds vote to ratify a candidate. Fenn asked for any suggestions the Board may have for questions to ask during the interviews. Elections will be held in February and all interviews will have been conducted by January 1, 1990. Jack brought up the possibility of bringing on 3 Trustees due to Greg/s resignation, ^
- The Conference voted to extend Helene’s term as Trustee for one more year. She does not have to be the WSO Chairperson, but she does have to be on the Board of Directors.
Page 12 of 12
- Greg resigned his position on the Board of Trustees and he felt that it was in his best interest as well as the board’s. He would like to be on a Trustee committee and will continue doing things that he has already committed to do.
- Ray implemented a Trustee committee for contracts and negotiations and Greg will chair this committee. Ray will send a description to him.
- A proposal for the PR firm was submitted to the Board. They would field all inquiries, not WSO. The cost was discussed. Jack wanted to see if a spending committee could be implemented and see if it’s affordable. He volunteered to be on this committee. The approximate cost would be $6,000 to $7,000 for a 90 day campaign. The possibility of this breaking Tradition 11 was discussed. Greg wanted to ask the PR firm when the best time to launch this campaign would be. i.e. when to hit what areas, etc. Bob felt that members of CA must work very closely with this company to ensure correct information and Jennifer said that Mark Anderson feels he can recruit people from San Diego to LA in PI to help. Jack felt that this could be an excellent way to do the minority outreach which has caused some concern. They could invite PI people to meet with the PR firm at the next meeting. The importance of a contract of sorts was expressed. A motion was made to authorize Pincus and Roseman to put on a PR campaign for CAWSO through the holidays and post holidays. A friendly amendment was made to state World Services instead of CAWSO. Amendment accepted. Seconded and passed. The possibility of a computerized phone system was discussed again.
- Bob asked if professional services could be used for production and distribution of the PSAs. This will go on the agenda for the next WSBT meeting.
The next World Service Board of Trustees regular quarterly meeting is scheduled for February 16, 17 and 18, commencing at 7:30 pm on the 16th.
Meeting adjourned at 2:20 pm with quiet time and the Lord’s Prayer.
