The Strange Camels Group meets Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings at 7:00 pm for a closed meeting. All meetings are non-smoking.
History:
“They sometimes say all you need is a resentment and a coffeepot to start a new group. Drop the resentment, keep the coffeepot, and you had a new group in town. That group was Strange Camels, which started July 1, 2003 at Immanual Presbyterian Church Annex.” The name derives from Bill W.’s early writings where an alcoholic in A.A. is compared to a “Strange Camel” because they both start the day on their knees, can go 24 hours without a drink, and end the day on their knees.
The group started with six homegroup members who were looking for a smaller, more intimate group. The group’s conscience voted to divide the meeting when there are more than 24 people to afford this intimacy, and to allow each person a chance to share.
They now have a core home group of 22, and emphasize staying in the solution and adhering to the 12 Traditions.
