Meeting-specific guidance
Based on the format tags for this listing, it is open to observers, family, friends, and anyone interested in learning about AA; speaker sharing is part of the format, so newcomers can mostly listen; the format is especially newcomer-friendly. Group note from the listing: We fellowship and play volleyball from around 3 p.m. until the meeting begins at 5 p.m. All skill levels are welcome! We meet on the grassy area before the pavilion at the far right end of the park (when facing the park from the street). Look for the blue volleyball net and the blue tent. Finding an open parking space can be difficult, so we suggest you com.
- Arrive 5 to 10 minutes early if this is your first time at the location.
- You can sit quietly and listen; sharing is optional.
- Confirm the time and location with the group or intergroup when possible, especially around holidays.
