    How do I add an entry for my group or district discussion meeting?

    Instructions for adding an entry are Here

    If there is more than one person who wants to be a contact person for my group or district, can I submit more than one name?

    Yes. An alternate contact person will make it more likely that a caller will be able to make a connection to your group or district. Just be sure that any name submitted is with the person's permission.

    If my group or district meets in more than one place, can I submit entries for each location?

    Yes.

    The Internet is a very public place. What if no-one in my district wants to have their name on this list?

    That's OK. There are often Chapter or Area leaders willing to be contact persons for one or more districts. If you ask around, you will probably find someone happy to be the contact person for your district.
