how they employ special workers to run the place. I
finally got it; I needed to employ special workers. I found
a cleaning service before the end of the day.
I no longer clean house or attend as many meetings as I
used to. I found a replacement for my voluntary program
work—I share my experience, strength and hope by
writing articles for the Filing Cabinet.

SPECIAL WORKERS
A while back, Tradition 8 helped me in my personal
affairs. Due to medical problems, cleaning the house
became extremely difficult. I enjoy housecleaning. It’s a
way for me to “trust God and clean house.” I also used it
as a means of making living amends to my husband and
parents.
When drinking, I used housecleaning as an excuse to
drink. I claimed that the 6-pack of beer that grew into a
case was my medicine. When I got sober, I found the joy
of cleaning my own little space in a Buddhist ritual, O Soji.
O Soji is a ritual of daily cleaning that those seeking to be
one with God use in life. In a scientific way, removing the
ions created by dust and dirt will actually change the
energy of my place from restlessness to peaceful
cheerfulness. In other words, “To polish the floor is to
polish one’s soul.” Seeing housecleaning as part of my
program made it difficult to admit that I could not do it
anymore.
I considered house cleaning a voluntary action that I did
on a regular basis, similar to chairing meetings and doing
12th Step Work. When it took me a week to recover from
cleaning, my back went out, I had to find a different
solution. The answer came in my morning meditation.
I came across Tradition 8, “Alcoholics Anonymous should
remain forever non-professional, but our service centers
may employ special workers.” Applying the tradition to
my current situation, I realized that as long as I did the
cleaning, I did not charge for my services. However,
cleaning became detrimental to my health. I thought of
the A.A. General Service Office and Salt River Intergroup,
I AM A SPECIAL WORKER
When I was asked to chair a meeting we needed to get
more chips and meeting lists. I was told that we
purchased these at Central Office. When I went to Salt
River Intergroup, the Central Office, I also picked up some
of the flyers that were on the wall. I noticed that one of
the flyers was announcing the opening for a paid parttime office assistant. I left this flyer in my car on the
passenger seat and forgot about it.
A few weeks later I ran into a friend in the post office and
told her I was having trouble with my new business I had
started up. I told her I probably needed to get a part-time
job to help me out. When I got back into my car I noticed
that flyer. I read it more carefully and found out that the
position was for 3 hours a day for 15 hours a week. Since I
was just down the road from Salt River Intergroup I
decided to stop in.
I met Jonathon, the manager, who gave me an
application to fill out. I was not really enthusiastic about
the job and figured I would not get it, but I talked to
Jonathon a little bit about what the job would be. I
remember being very comfortable in that little office on
7th street and talked to him just like I would talk to
another alcoholic, not like it was a job interview.
A few weeks passed when in October 2007 Jonathan
called me and offered me the job. I have to say I was
surprised, but excited about the position. Only working a
few hours a week gave me the time to get my business
going and once it was stable I would not need the job. As
it turned out my business failed and I had to file
bankruptcy and downsize my life. The job went up to 20
hours a week and I got a raise. It was just enough
(Continued on next page)
August 2015, Volume 25, Issue 8
(Continued from previous page)
for me to pay my bills and have my needs taken care of.
Today I am coming up on my 8th year at Salt River
Intergroup and I just celebrated my 10th year of sobriety.
I have loved being a “Special Worker”. It has taught me
patience and tolerance. I have listened to the sad and
happy stories of many alcoholics and feel blessed each
day to have shared with them.
Yes, it is a job that, thanks to Bill W., pays a fair wage for
what I do. As the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions
states “She was not professionalizing the Twelfth Step;
she was just making it possible…Volunteer
committeemen and assistants could be of great help, but
they could not be expected to carry this load day in and
day out.”
I am not sure how long my Higher Power wants me to
stay at this job, but I am sure glad he directed me to the
office that day.
Your humble Special Worker,
Sandy B.

THREE BOTTLES OF ALE
During late August or early September of
1934, the future of AA, to be or not to be,
rested in the delicate balance of Ebby
Thacher’s (yes, only one “t”) decision to
drink, or not to drink, three tempting
basement-cooled bottles of Ballantine Ale
which would have calmed his alcoholic
shakes and impending DTs.
Ebby was living in his family summer
home in Manchester, Vermont, and had been arrested
for shooting at pigeons on his roof on a rainy evening.
This was just not that sort of upscale neighborhood, i.e.,
Todd Lincoln, Abraham’s son, once lived directly across
the street. Vermont law mandated that Ebby was to be
confined in Brattleboro Asylum for this—his third—
drunken offence (He already had slammed his car into
the side of a house and laughingly asked the owner for a
cup of coffee—she called the constable instead).
However, the judge allowed him to remain free if he
returned to court without drinking the following Monday.
Ebby picked up those three tempting ale bottles, but his
honesty prevailed; he surrendered them to a neighbor.
He then prayed sincerely that God help him stop drinking
and amazingly, he experienced an immediate release
from his mental obsession which lasted for two years and
SRI Newsletter—Phoenix, Scottsdale—P3
seven months . . . and as we know, this was time enough
for him to carry his sober message to Bill Wilson the
following November (p. 9) who then, launched the AA
fellowship with Dr. Bob Smith in June of 1935.

THE SEARCH FOR GOD
A very important sentence crops
up every time we read Chapter
Five at meetings: “But there is
One who has all power—that
one is God. May you find Him
now!” The Big Book speaks of the “Great Reality deep
within ” (p. 55). This infers that this “power greater than
ourselves” is not just "out there" in the heavens
somewhere, but it is "in here." This notion is both an
intellectually satisfying philosophy and theology; it moves
beyond pious sentiment. This insight changes everything!
The wondrous God that allows me to stay sober is not
something that I invited into my world; it was already
there! It's not about God doing everything from the
outside. I now realize that my freedom from alcohol is
generated from the inside—once that information
became a concrete spiritual realization, my prayer life
became very different. My spiritual growth became an
obvious reality.
An alcoholic cannot drink on the truth—an alcoholic can
only drink on a lie. Reality is the Truth! I cannot drink so
long as I allow the “Great Reality deep within” to remain
in charge of my decision-making-apparatus (mind and
emotions).
When I am fully resonating with this inside power, I then
immediately begin to experience it all around me on the
outside as well! First the inside, then the outside.
Someone asked: “Why is God so hard to find?” Answer:
“Because He ain’t lost!” This is something I need to
remember as long as I live.

Summer Roundup
SRI Summer Roundup golf chair Gretchen stood and
spoke about the golf tournament on August 8th. It is at
McCormick Ranch Golf Club. One does not have to be a
member of AA to play, and you do not need to go to the
Summer Roundup to play in the tournament. She showed
us where the fliers are and asked us to bring this info
back to our home groups. She said that the Summer
Roundup is a huge fundraiser for the Salt River Intergroup
and said we can register for the Roundup or Golf
Tournament on the SRI website.
Aaron, the raffle chair, then spoke. He said that the fliers
are done and reiterated that the event is at the Chaparral
Suites on August 7, 8 & 9. He asked us to take fliers and
asked us to please add this event to our home group
announcements. He said he is also raffle chair, and that
we need to sell 15,000 raffle tickets. He said the Grand
Prize is a seven-day sober cruise for two to various points
in Mexico. He said they need prizes! He also there will
also be a drawing for those who donate gifts. He asked
us to go back to our home groups and really ask them if
they are able to come up with prizes to donate. He said
this is really important.
Don, the marathon chair, also spoke. He said he is the
marathon chair. He explained that various home groups
host the hospitality room each hour during the Roundup.
He said that each of these groups chair the marathon
meeting the following hour. He also listed his name and

number on the white board. He then passed around the
sign-up sheet.

7. Treasurer’s Report.
Jamez presented the Treasurer's report. He began by
pointing out that we are slightly behind last year in terms
of our balance sheet, but that that is normal for our
intergroup at this time of the year. Moving on the profit
and loss statement, he then pointed out that we are
behind last year at this point in time re: individual
contributions and group contributions and asked the
intergroup to do what they can to convey this to their
home groups. It was pointed out that it is not abnormal
to be in the red at this point of the year, and that the
Summer Roundup always moves us into the black and
profitability. Andrea made a motion to accept, Mattie
seconded. Motion passed.
8.Saturday Volunteers.
Robert announced that we are current on meeting lists
and will not require groups to meet to compile lists until

have been passed out, and pumped up the cruise, which
is the raffle main prize. She said that during the summer
many snowbirds leave town and that they need help
answering phones during this time in their absence. She
August 2015, Volume 25, Issue 8
covered the TAS shifts where they need help, and
mentioned page 18 in the agenda, and also the other
fliers that are also in the agenda.
11.SRI Committee Reports
Filing Cabinet: Pete outlined various items that are
contained in each issue, and the types of articles that we
are looking for and ways to email submissions. He said
others in their home groups could also contribute, and
said he is willing to work with anyone should they need
help writing and editing an article. He said they will be
working on the July issue, and that Jamez recently wrote
an essay on giving and that Pete also wrote one for the
sixth step. He said that each issue corresponds to that
particular step or tradition.
PI/CPC: When there is a request for information, this
committee prepares a presentation to give them. There is
a training session and they give the volunteer all the
information they need to reach out to these groups. The
meetings are at 7 pm at Fellowship Hall at 28th Drive and
Windrose.
TAS: Marie said the central office will be closed on July 912, 12-3, 3-6 on July 3rd and July 4th, and she asked for
volunteers. Several were able to volunteer to cover these
shifts.
Archives: Doug said they put together another packet for
the troops. He asked that if anyone has old speaker tapes,
that this committee is certainly willing to take them or
make copies.
SNAC: Diane said there is no report.
H&I: Kyle was not present. Their business meeting will be
tomorrow night at 7pm at Bill Wilson Hall at Community
Bridges on Van Buren.
Finance: Will meet on the 27th of June.
Unity: Pete rose and said that he and Diane are on the
Unity Committee and that they are getting closer to
finishing the Word document that isolates those groups
needing to be confirmed and that would benefit from
having an intergroup rep. He said that the steering
committee would need to approve the format and
content of the document before we are ready to reach
out to these groups. There were several questions from
the intergroup that indicated that they are interested in
this project. A question was asked that Jamez addressed
that was a good reminder that all groups would benefit
from having an intergroup rep, even if they are unable to
send in group contributions.
General Service: No report.
SRI Newsletter—Phoenix, Scottsdale—P8
12.Event Committee Liaisons:
SRI Roundup: Doug spoke and said tomorrow night at
6:30 is the next planning meeting. Every second
Wednesday until July on page 18 on flier.
Christmas Alcothon: Jamez spoke and said that the
contract is signed and the meetings will begin in August.
New Year’s Eve: No report.
13.Old Business: No old business.
New Business: We need an H&I rep. Robert spoke about
H&I and said we need someone to come both here and
there for the intergroup meeting. Mike said he would do
it!
Diane spoke about electing next year's steering
committee. In order to be voted upon in November, one
must be present four consecutive meetings to be able to
vote. "Make sure you sign in!" She also mentioned that
we need an advisor currently. She said that per the
bylaws, two steering committee members cannot come
from the same home group. She will need their bio.
Jamez mentioned that page 23 of the packet has sobriety
requirements listed.
