DID YOU KNOW?  The location of the Al-Anon State Convention is chosen 2 years prior to the event at the Area World Service Committee (AWSC) in August.  Between Spring Assembly and the AWSC in August the Alternate Delegate combs through many Michigan hotel convention centers and picks 3 that are then shown at the August AWSC.  Your District Rep votes with the rest of the Michigan District Reps to choose the location. So this year, in August, your District Rep will vote on where the 2021 convention will be held.  Don’t have a District Rep? Get together with the other groups in your district and pick someone who will represent and have them come to AWSC (yes, it’s that easy). New District Rep orientation is always held at 9:40, just before the meeting starts and the new rep gets a welcome packet to take back to help them get started.
