The letter and flyers were sent to forty­one schools in the tri­county area announcing the Monday Night Alateen meeting. A new Alateen group has been formed on Friday morning at 9:30 AM. It meets at the First English Lutheran Church in Peoria at the same time as Al­Anon. They will meet every Friday that the public schools are not in session.

The Answering Service is looking into a Fall fund raiser and will have a June 2010 garage sale if a chairman volunteers. Group Records information was updated during visits and the District provided a Group Financial Responsibility sheet with the suggested order for contributing. Each group was reminded that they could send a theme basket including one piece of Al­Anon Conference Approved Literature to the State Convention in Rosemont. Delivery contact people were announced. Reminder was given of the 2009 AA Illinois State Conference and East Central Regional w/Al­Anon participation.
