Trustees' Corner
- Trustee Line: I encourage all members to read the December Trustee Line (www.trusteewebsite.com - scroll down and click on "Trustee Line home Page" link) Item 1, New Meeting formation and procedure. I believe this is a serious issue which needs to be discussed at our next SDIG meeting. This is a subject matter which should be brought to the attention at each group and members' thoughts, comments and opinions be brought to SDIG by your Intergroup Rep. Thank you. -- Linda S, Area 3A Trustee
- Trustee Website: We now have a direct link on our SDGA web site to the Trustee Website. Please click on the rolling agenda and let your Trustees know how you feel about these issues. Our vote is only as good as your information and advice. Thank you.
