Error on February 2012 Meeting List

Posted on February 11, 2012 by admin

Blue Ridge Area Narcotics AnonymousThere is a mistake on the BRANA Meeting List that was distributed at the February 9, 2012, Blue Ridge Area Service Committee meeting.

The “Wednesday 12 noon: Triumph Over Tragedy” listing is not an actual meeting. Please take a few minutes and cross out this listing on your home group’s meeting lists.

This mistake has been corrected on this Web site’s meeting list and on the downloadable meeting list at right.
