The Bainbridge Island Group
Alcoholics Anonymous
Welcome to Alcoholics Anonymous
at the Grange
Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share their experience, strength, and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for AA membership: we are self supporting through our own contributions. AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization, or institution: does not wish to engage in any controversy: neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
NOTICE - Due to the current Coronavirus ( COVID - 19 ) Pandemic guidelines the Bainbridge Island Group has reopened 8 of our original 11 meetings. Our Group Conscience has voted not to provide online Zoom meetings at this time. If you are looking for Zoom meetings, please join one of the online meetings supported by other A.A. Groups listed in the schedules below.
