A Preview of our Cleveland A.A. History Workshop
Resources
Dick B.
1. The good news about Cleveland A.A. History resources
arrived today with Ken’s successful
discussion with the archivist at Cleveland. The man is also archivist for the
State of Ohio A.A. And he has graciously agreed to make all of the archives
available for our team. He also has a disk of all copies of the Cleveland
Central Bulletin. Therefore, we will not
only have access to the materials; but we will have this man to facilitate the
searches, show us the Abby G. Home where so many of the Cleveland activities
began. He may also be able to show us the Clarence Snyder home there that
Clarence shared with his first wife Dorothy. This resource is like a gold mine
because of the time it will save, and the guidance it will provide.
2. Shortly, we will be sending again a list of the
important books on Cleveland and Clarence that you may want to bring or review.
3. Jim H. will again be at the workshops to take photos
of everything that moves and of documents , pictures, team members, and
all the rest.
4. Greg M. is an Akron AA oldtimer who will be bringing
material from there including the original Akron AA pamphlets which belonged to
his grandfather.
5. We have asked all of our Vermont team members to join
us again or, if they can’t join us, to help with the funding of this $6000. Trip
– as most of them
Did on
the Vermont activities.
6. As we’ve said, the Embassy Suites are right next door
to the Intergroup Office in Cleveland; and that too will be a blessing.
7. As you know, we will be doing workshops with Christian
leaders in the San Jose Area both before and after the Cleveland trip; and we
will go from Cleveland to Orlando to participate in the Came to Believe
Retreats at Leesburg, Florida. We will have time at Steve’s home to meet
personally with those who want to do so over the Florida period.
Good hunting. Please join us.
And all to the glory of God.
