- Q1 2018 REPORTS. If you haven’t seen your group featured in your region article in Reports, it’s possible your Advisor doesn’t receive your newsletter or your website isn’t updated with information about what is happening with your group. Newsletters and websites are where we find information to include in our articles. You might want to make a New Years resolution to put a paragraph or two together about what’s happening with your group and send it to your Advisor. The deadline for the Q1 Reports article is January 20. If you have a newsletter, please make sure your Advisor is on the distribution list.
The Advisors are your communication link with APCUG.
