Campout July 17-19

Don't forget, our annual District 11 campout is happening July 17-19 at Cascadia State Park, which is about two hours southeast of Portland, near Sweet Home, Oregon.

The cost is $15 per person, $25 per family, and there will be meetings and hikes and swimming and fishing and all sorts of fun.

Note: There will be no Saturday "Moment of Silence" meeting in downtown Portland on Saturday, July 18.

Details on the campout are on fliers in meetings. You can also email Paul G with questions: portlandpaul@mac.com.

New Saturday Meeting is On!

Don't forget, we have a new meeting in Downtown Portland on Saturday evenings. Format includes a five-minute meditation time, and tea is provided.

"A Moment of Silence" starts at 6:30 p.m. at the First Unitarian Church (back side), SW 13th and Salmon. That's right along the 405, with plenty of parking. Look for a door with the MA logo on it, just up 13th from Salmon.

Clackamas Meeting Needs Support

The Wednesday meeting in Clackamas, "Dopeless Hope Fiends," is looking for members with solid time clean and sober to come and share. You are invited to come and help support young people attending their first MA meetings.

It's an excellent service opportunity! Just think if someone you had clued you in way back then...

Meeting details are below and to the right.
