Area Registrar

In cooperation with the Area Secretary, the Registrar develops and maintains records of all registered groups, either active or inactive, within the area. These records include Group information such as Group name, meeting location and time.

Registrars are also responsible for names, mailing addresses, phone numbers for the GSR's, DCM's, district officers, area officers and other area committee members. Any information change or addition generated at the district level is sent to the area to be entered into their system and then sent on to G.S.O. By keeping accurate records, communication is enhanced throughout the general service structure.

The Area Registrar will also be responsible for updating the area-wide meeting book. An Area Registrar needs a willingness to become organized and should feel comfortable working with paper. This service position demands time and attention to details; changes and additions are constant. Computer literacy may be helpful.
