PI

Hello Area, PI held its subcommittee meeting on 9-17-05 at WDR.  There were 2 addicts attending.  Not much to report this month.  We are steading the guide to phone line service so we can put on a workshop learning day for phone line volunteers.  I spoke with the new principle at South Middle School and they are not sure about or presentation.  He said to call back in February.  My term as PI Chair is over in Oct.  Our committee doesn’t have any nominations or no one with the clean time required to serve so the GSR’s might check with there groups for nominees.  If no one steps up, I could probably handle 1 more year.  Our next meeting will be on 10-15-05 at 1:30pm at WDR

Thank You

Sincerely PI, Bruce
