Previous updates:
First is the Delegate Newsletter that I assembled with the help of friends.
It covers just about everything we did at the Conference this year, and all of the topics the Arizona Area weighed in at the Pre-Conference Assembly.
Look below for the 2026-A3-Delegate-newsletter.
Save the date! The 2026 Pacific Regional Forum is San Diego December 4-6. The flyer is below with room information, and it is a free event.
There are updated Quarterly Reports from GSO. Save this link as a favorite to access reports anytime.
Check out the latest edition of Box 4-5-9. GSO no longer prints paper copies and that has saved over $300,000 the past 2 years. You can join the email delivery list on this page.
