Traditions Six Checklist - 2008
As usual, the same as last year, always worthy of consideration, any day, any time, imho.
Tradition Six: An AA group ought never endorse, finance, or lend the AA name to any related facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property, and prestige divert us from our primary purpose.
- Should my fellow group members and I go out and raise money to endow several AA beds in our local hospital?
- Is it good for a group to lease a small building?
- Are all the officers and members of our local club for AAs familiar with “Guidelines on Clubs” (which is available free from GSO)?
- Should the secretary of our group serve on the mayor’s advisory committee on alcoholism?
- Some alcoholics will stay around AA only if we have a TV and card room. If this is what is required to carry the message to them, should we have these facilities?
Some things I can do if I don’t ascribe credit to AA but do them personally, like raise money for beds for alcoholics in our hospitals. I think our secretary can also perform duties like that but in a personal capacity.
No, I don’t believe we need to have a TV and a card room. Disagreements arise. Focus is altered.
