From GSO…

Below is the information I was able to find about the Get It Together Group.

Get It Together Group: Chandler, AZ

The earliest correspondence from the group is dated June 29, 1979.  A new group information form lists the group as the Chandler Saturday Night Group.  The group met on Saturday night with 6 members.  Shirley W. and Bob K. were listed as the contact people for the group.  They met at the First Presbyterian Church.

The next correspondence is dated August 4, 1980.  Joe H., chairperson of the group, wrote to the G.S.O. with:

There is only one other meeting (group) in Chandler and that is the Chandler Tuesday Night Group which meet in the Presbyterian Church. 8:30 PM Tuesdays (Open)

Our electronic database lists the group with 400 members who meet daily.  Steve V. and Scott S. are currently listed as the contact people for the group. 

Our print directories provide the following information for the first few years the group was listed:

Please keep in mind that the amount of available information about a group depends on the amount of information the group has sent the G.S.O. throughout the years. In addition, it is common for groups to organize meetings, prior to contacting the G.S.O.
