District 7 has a number of open service positions at the district level, outlined below. Please submit your service resume to our DCM / Alt DCM trusted servants if interested.

The District Treasurer The treasurer receives and accounts for all moneys from the groups. A monthly accounting of all receipts and disbursements will be made to the District Committee at its regular meeting. The Treasurer’s report must show year-to-date total contributions from each group. The Treasurer may disburse payments for verified reasonable expenses to all committee members. The District Committee entrusts the Treasurer with stewardship of District moneys and relies upon his or her prudent judgment in determining the disbursement of funds for reasonable expenses. The Treasurer will disburse additional payments as directed by the GSRs. The Treasurer will maintain a prudent reserve of $800. Monthly expenses of the District include maintenance and support of the P.O. Box, AA Hotline, and rental payments for the District Archives. Any excess funds from the previous year’s group donations, above the prudent reserve and the current year’s committee allocations, are contributed equally to Washington State East Area 92 and the General Service Office; this payment will be made annually during the month of July (amended 6/8/2019).
