Delegate’s Update & Upcoming Pacific Regional Forum

 In Delegate's Corner
0

It has been an eventful season. Recently, I’ve had the privilege of watching the Panel 77 delegate elections in other areas. I am incredibly grateful for hybrid events, which allow us to observe how different areas operate and see the election results firsthand. I look forward to the opportunity to serve alongside these amazing Panel 77 delegates!

On a personal note, I am traveling in North Dakota for my high school reunion and my niece’s wedding. It is wonderful reconnecting with family, old friends, and mentors.

Currently, I am busy preparing for the upcoming Pacific Regional Forum, where I will be co-presenting with a fellow delegate from Area 6 on the timely topic of “AI and AA Traditions.”

Speaking of the Pacific Regional Forum – the next one will take place December 4–6, 2026, in San Diego, California. If you aren’t sure what a Regional Forum is, there are short explainer videos available at aa.org/regional-local-and-special-forums.

GSO no longer provides live interpretation services for the Forum. While AI interpretation is being tested at some events (taking into account technical barriers and the nuances of AA recovery), Area 08 (San Diego) recently passed a motion to fund live ASL interpretation at their own expense. They are currently asking for support from other Pacific Region Areas to help cover the costs of Spanish interpretation.

Registration is officially open!

Hope to see you at the October Assembly in Spokane,

Dan M. Panel 76 Delegate
