An in-person, English-language meeting for Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families offers a welcoming setting for anyone who grew up in an alcoholic or otherwise dysfunctional home. The study and discussion format centers on readings from the ACA Fellowship Text, including the BRB and the Strengthening My Recovery daily reader, followed by sharing about how the material relates to everyday life. The focus is on healing the effects of childhood abuse, neglect, and trauma through reflection, grieving, and honest self-inventory in a safe, nonjudgmental space. Conversations may also explore the traits known as the Laundry List, such as isolation, approval seeking, fear of criticism, denial of feelings, low self-esteem, confusion of love and pity, over-responsibility, excitement seeking, abandonment fears, dependency, and para-alcoholic patterns. Open to all, this gathering supports personal growth, freedom from shame and abandonment, and the practice of becoming one’s own loving parent.

Enjoy a relaxed darts social at Dog Rose Brewing Co., open to anyone who likes a friendly game and meeting new people. This is a casual meetup rather than a league, with no commitment required.

With two cork boards and steel tip darts available, it is easy to run teams chosen at random and, when there are enough players, a double elimination format. The goal is to build a steady group of around eight players. Winners can look forward to prizes and Dog Rose merchandise. Whether you arrive with friends or come on your own, you will be welcomed.
