A Word From Our Co-District Committee Members

Hello District 2,

We are glad to announce the creation of a District 2 website for the dissemination of information to all groups and members of Colorado AA District 2 here in Mesa County. The intent of this website is to provide a central location for all documents and information received from the General Service Office of Alcoholics Anonymous (GSO), Area 10 in Colorado, as well as District 2. The Co-District Committee Members’s (DCMs) and Alternate Co-DCM, along with the website committee will manage this website and its security for all documents and content stored on it. This has been a 2-year process, and we hope this becomes a valuable tool for our GSR’s and DCM’s to utilize and efficiently improve time management.

The Group Service Representatives (GSRs), the DCMs and officers of District 2 are a vital link between each member of AA and its national governing body (GSO). Please talk with your service sponsor and consider getting involved. Without a GSR, your group’s voice will go unheard.

Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or concerns.

In Service, the Co and Alt – DCMs of Colorado AA District 2

Co-District Committee Members

In District 2, we have C0-District Committee Members whose job it is to facilitate our District 2 Committee meetings and support our GSRs in representing their group’s conscience.

It was really good to see everyone today! Here is a summary of our March 15, 2026 District 2 Business Meeting:

We had good attendance and had a very efficient meeting today. We spent some time talking about the upcoming Spring Assembly and how the process works. We took an informal vote on the agenda items we know will be voted on next weekend. The general consensus is that we are ok with adding a virtual 4th assembly for the purpose of voting (on a trial basis). We also agreed to continue using the Area Contracts Coordinator for putting together bids for the State Convention. Each GSR will also need to look over the proposed changes to the Colorado State Convention Guidelines.

Amanda was voted in as our new Member at Large.

The procedure guide change was approved to allow a committee chair to request a co-chair to be added. In order for a co-chair to be added, the committee chair must make the request directly to the district. Then the new open position will be announced by groups for a month before a district vote will take place.

Our ad hoc committee on the finances and the lack of clear guidance in the Procedure Guide has not had time to meet. They will give an update at our next district meeting.

Manon has two date options for Martha to present her delegate report: June 21, 2026 and June 22, 2026. The first date is Father’s Day and the second is a Monday. We need to check club availability for those dates but we are open to using an alternate location, if necessary.

Manon also asked for input about having a pre-registration event for the s2026 State Convention. There was a lot of positive input for having lawn games and a possibly “dunk your sponsor” tank.

We had discussion about the bid being presented by Christa and Lindsey (District 14) for the 2027 State Convention. Topics of concern included burnout and how much responsibility the individual groups would have in the process. GSRs were encouraged to only commit if they are ok with participating. The district is not hosting or responsible for the planning or putting together of the State Convention. This event is hosted by Area 10, not the districts.

Our current District Secretary (Angela) announced that she will be stepping down from her position as of April 2026. Current open positions at District include: Secretary, Co-DCM, archives and Grapevine. The website chair will also be open in April when Patrick rotates out.

The Promises group will be hosting an event on April 11, 2026 immediately following the regular meeting (which begins at 5:30pm). They are calling it “Nacho Average Taco Party” and it is a Mexican food potluck. Contact Shae for more information.

We opened a discussion about how the groups would like the district to communicate financial information. Craig offered to attend group business meetings to present financial information to groups. GSRs, please open up the discussion with your groups about how they prefer for financials to be communicated. We will continue to discuss this topic in the future.

The current Co-DCM (Christa) has been unable to fulfill all of the DCM duties due to her declining vision and having to stop driving last year. Our alternate Co-DCM (Kelli) has offered to attend any group meetings or business meetings. GSRs, please contact Kelli to let her know when your group’s business meetings are scheduled and she is happy to attend.

Our next District 2 Business Meeting is April 19, 2026 at 4pm.

In Service and Gratitude,
