Most associations like to take time out now and
then to observe some phase of their development.
Holding a convention is a natural thing to do. In
A.A., such an event is far more than a routine
cause for celebration. A convention also sets up a
useful opportunity to share the A.A. experience in
a broader way. It’s a common misconception that
conventions are regular A.A. meetings. “There
are no dues or fees for A.A. membership...”
therefore, some feel there should be no fees to
attend. Conventions are special events, not
regular meetings. A large conference requires a
substantial amount of planning, preparation and
expense.
The March Round Up Convention is self
supporting. Costs of the event are paid by
registration fees. No baskets are passed. Cost is
nominal compared to a weekend’s entertainment
elsewhere.
Our goal is to break even financially. Attendance
is voluntary. As responsible A.A. Members, we
pay our own way.
U
March Round Up Conventions are held in hotels,
and there is a charge for the use of their facilities.
Costs include travel and lodging for speakers,
coffee, printing, and postage to name a few.

Hospitality & Coffee
Donations Needed!
Hospitality rooms offer coffee and snacks for all attendees. These rooms are
funded solely by contributions from members like you.
Coffee must be purchased from the hotel for the over 2400 members, friends and
family who are planning to come. Even if you can’t attend - a small donations
might help someone participating in the conference get sober. It’s an easy way to
practice the 12th step.
We need help from groups and individual members to defray these costs. Please
help out if possible, so that everyone may enjoy coffee and the hospitality rooms
at the 2015 March Roundup.
