It
was suggested that District 3 groups provide a few volunteers to work the hospitality
table on Saturday. Suggested hours were 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Louise S. will make up the volunteer
sheet which will be divided into two hour segments. We
will need baked goods, raw vegetables, fruit, water, soda and ice, and whatever else the
groups would like to bring.
Chuck
L. has prepared a draft schedule of Serenity.
The
Saturday night speaker will be Chris O. from Chicago, IL.
Chris has called and confirmed this. The
proposed Saturday lunchtime speaker will be Norine O. from Chicago, IL. We have yet to confirm that.
It
was also suggested that up to ten scholarships be offered for Serenity. The scholarship folk can then work in exchange
– cleaning up, setting up, etc.
