Intergroup-
Sales from the TVICO Open House – $1894.48. There was good participation and people seemed to enjoy themselves.
Store Inventory completed in 1/5/25. They wrote off $1182.13 (GSO) which can be contributed to merchandise that walked out the door without being paid for, which is disturbing. $86.52 in non-GSO write off which was an overage for inventory received but not logged.
The hotline – Ken Harris has stepped up to manage the schedule and the 12 step call lists. He has done a fantastic job and has a full calendar put together and provided the 12-step lists and calendar to all who have an after hours slot.
For real this time – the InterGroup Entertainment Chair has stepped down, due to health issues so this position is open.
As always, IG could really used group representation at the monthly business meetings which are held on the 2nd Thursday of each month:
Potluck @ 5pm – Meeting @ 6pm In Person Location (bring your favorite Potluck item): The Clubhouse @ 8448 Rifleman St., Boise, ID
Zoom ID: 841 8862 6550
Passcode: Intergroup
Thank you for allowing me to be of service.
