D-Liberation: the Area D
Newsletter
The Area D/Southern Region Assembly has okayed the publication of a quarterly
Area Newsletter. The first will be published in January 2010. A copy
will be available here on the website, or you can have a copy sent to your email
address. To cut down costs, a hard copy will be sent to DCMs or GSRs only
on request, but ALL members are encouraged to subscribe to the electronic
version to keep up with what's happening in the Area. Perhaps you can also
do some service by printing a copy to take to your Group for those that don't
have access to email or the internet!
