District 18 Archives
Our monthly GSR meeting has elected to document the history of the various group meetings within our district. This project will be headed up by our current district archivist Bruce K. As we know there has been a large increase in the number and variety of AA groups in recent years. The purpose of the archive project is to capture this local group history before it is lost to time. We feel this information would be of interest to current and future AA members. Specific information may be how and when a group was formed, how it has changed over time, what are the current issues and challenges. If you have interest or knowledge of your group history please forward it directly to Bruce K at bjkoz@mail.com or by mail to District 18 archive P.O. Box 182 Newport, NH 03773.
