Summary

I was thinking of adding a forum or discord so folks can discuss the speaks or whatever sober related. It would be private, I want to know if you would be into that? I put a one question survey up to get your opinion and I would be very grateful. https://scast.us/discuss Today is the last day, if you have an opinion. We have a panel of speakers sharing on the topic, Gifts of Sobriety at the 2014 Girlstock International Conference held in Atlanta Georgia. I just added ISCYPAA 41 Young Peoples on the event list, its taking place in Illinois at the end of March https://scast.us/iscypaa41 The Southern States Women's Conference is coming up in Florida at the end of this month and space is still available. https://scast.us/sswc I also just added the South Carolina State Convention to the event list, coming up in March. https://scast.us/regscstate Also if you have any AA or Al-Anon event coming up let me know I am happy to help get the word out. https://scast.us/events Email: sobercast@gmail.com Support Sober Cast: https://sobercast.com/donate AA Event List: https://scast.us/events If you have an AA roundup, retreat, convention or workshop coming up, we would be happy to give you a shout out here on the podcast and list the event on the Sober Cast website.
