The
following is being posted to the SCAnner, ISO List, Inreach Committee List,
Outreach Committee, Fiduciary Committee, Online Intergroup Ops. List, and
members of the Sunday telephone meeting.
We are very
pleased to announce that a new weekly telephone meeting will be starting on
Wednesday, October 31, 2012 under the auspices of Online Intergroup. The
meeting will be held at 4:00 p.m. New York time every Wednesday. Services like www.timeanddate.com can tell you the equivalent time in
your location. The new Wednesday meeting will largely mirror the existing
Sunday telephone meeting. The meeting will be conducted in English.
All SCA
members worldwide are welcome to attend, as are members from other “S”
fellowships, and anyone qualifying under SCA’s Third Tradition.
The meeting
will be hosted via the Calliflower Conference Call system that is currently
being used by the Sunday telephone meeting, ISO and several ISO Committees.
This allows most people to call in free via Skype to Skype bridge, free or at
low cost via Google Voice or Gmail Call Phone depending on where you live, and
at normal local tariffs via regular phone to local numbers provided by Calliflower
in many areas. In rare cases, long distance charges may apply.
If you wish
to attend a telephone meeting, or are already a participant in the Sunday
meeting and also want to attend the Wednesday meeting, please register in one
of the following ways:
Ø
Send
an email with your first name and last initial, plus the email address to which
your Calliflower invitation and weekly reminders should be sent, to: oimoderator@gmail.com.
Ø
Sign
up via the SCA website at: http://www.sca-recovery.org/telephoneaccess.htm.
Please specify which meetings you wish to attend, e.g.
“Wednesdays” or “Sundays” or “Wednesdays and Sundays.”

Online
Intergroup is excited to be offering this additional meeting option, and we
hope it will prove to be a success. Its viability will depend not only on
members attending, but also on members getting involved in telephone meeting
service, and chairing in particular. Both telephone meetings are looking for
volunteers, and training is offered.
An updated
flyer for the telephone meetings is also being distributed throughout the
fellowship. Please circulate it and pass this news on to groups and members
everywhere!
In service,
Kevin – SCA Toronto
