Running a Hybrid Meeting
First, let us define a Hybrid meeting. This a traditional AA meeting in a room with members present and a secretary running the meeting – all very familiar. Now, if the meeting room has a strong WiFi connected to a good Internet Connection[1] then on the secretaries’ desk we can have two laptops or one laptop and one tablet both with good cameras and microphones [2]and an external large monitor or video projector for laptop 2 so that room can see and hear the Zoom. Via the first camera and microphone the Zoom can see and hear the room. And so we have one (hybrid) meeting.
You can download a fuller note on Organising and Running a Hybrid Meeting by clicking on the link. This note was first published Sept 2020 and feed back to the eclo email would be helpful.
[1] The internet connection should be at least 8mbps down and 2mbps up
[2] It may be necessary to add a good quality external mic and room camera to the second laptop and if the
room is large a good external monitor or projector as well.

Contribute
Just like membership of our wonderful Fellowship, you need not be a special type of alcoholic to write for share. No one can keep you out; you’re a member if you say you are. And if you are a member, newcomer or oldtimer, we need to hear your experience, strength and hope just like at any other meeting.
Spelling and grammar will all be amended if necessary. You can write just a few lines or more, up to about 1000 words max, but we cannot publish poetry or obituaries. Each issue of share will always feature that month’s corresponding Step and Tradition. In addition, we need your words on whatever is important in your sobriety! To help you, we have the following list of upcoming themes. But, as always, write from the heart.
Send your article at least two months before the relevant topic is due to appear. For example, Step or Tradition 10 (October) needs to be in by August 15th and so on. So put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard – help yourself and us. Send your contribution to:
The Editor,SHARE,General Service Office, PO BOX 1, 10 Toft Green, York,YO1 7NJ
You can also email articles to us at AAShare@gsogb.org.uk
