NCCAA 75th Annual Fall Conference this Weekend

The Northern California Council of A.A. (NCCAA) is hosting a weekend-long gathering of A.A.members and members of A.A. sister Program Al-Anon on October 13-15. The event is the oldest A.A. conference and is filled with guest speakers (many from the Bay Area), marathon meetings, special events, prize drawings, literature and Spanish speakers. NCCAAs Fall Conference is at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Fresno.

Marin Pop Up Bookstore this Monday

Our next Marin Pop Up Bookstore is Monday, October 16 at 6:45pm to 9:30pm. Orders need to be placed this Saturday so they can be picked up at the monthly Marin General Service meeting at Vivalon (Jackson Cafe, 930 Tamalpais Avenue, San Rafael). Encourage your literature person to purchase A.A. literature from our online bookstore and have it delivered free of charge or feel free to stop by during the Pop Up to see our wide assortment of A.A. literature. We are also looking for a volunteer to sell A.A. literature at our monthly Pop Up Bookstore in Marin. The volunteer processes literature sales, so familiarity with computers is necessary. The sobriety requirement is two years and it is a one-year commitment. For more information, reach out to [email protected].

Grateful Giver Logo Design Contest

We are grateful to the designers who submitted logos for our Grateful Giver design contest. Check out their designs! Intergroup Representatives will be selecting their favorite logo at the November Intergroup meeting. Also, if you aren’t already a Grateful Giver, please consider signing up today. It is a great way to support Intergroup as your contributions support important 12th Step services.
