Meeting Updates (11/2026):

  • Our Local group will participate in a Group Inventory in January 2027. Taking a periodic group inventory helps to keep your group healthy and invigorated. Members can use the inventory to discuss what actions have been beneficial to group and personal growth, and what actions need to be updated, discontinued, or improved. Discussions during or following an inventory can include ideas for new service opportunities, ideas for reaching out to potential members, and resolutions for major or minor concerns before the group’s unity is disrupted. “The harmony and success of each group depends on shared responsibility, a warm spirit of fellowship, and individual self-improvement.”

    • You can find the document with a list of questions and information about our Group Inventory HERE. Anyone is welcome to join our meeting and help provide our group feedback so we can better serve our members and community.

Donations are welcome at any time! Tradition 11 states that we are self-supporting through our own contributions. We accept cash or Venmo at meetings, or you can mail a check to us at: PO Box 770392, Steamboat Springs, CO 80477

Business Meetings are held on the last Wednesday of each month at around 12:45 pm, in person and via Zoom, following our Wednesday meeting. If you feel called to volunteer some time, we welcome any and all support. Please attend a business meeting to get started.

District Assembly Quarterly update: 11/9/26

Al Anon Assembly - November 7, 2026

  • There are new brochures available: Al Anon Faces Alcoholism

  • There is ample opportunity to submit short pieces on experience, strength, and hope to the Forum and the Butterfly.

  • Al Anon Colorado Website has been re-organized for easier maneuvering. Check it out for Colorado Events and News: https://al-anon-co.org/

  • Special Projects Fund is available for public outreach such as newspaper ads, billboards, bus stops, etc.

  • The 2027 Budget passed. I voted no due to 10% of the annual budget being allocated to travel for 10 officers and past delegates to go to the same annual conference. The vote passed with only a 60% majority, and a task force will be created to review the policy regarding conference attendance. I spoke up because of the significantly changing economy reflecting rising costs and incomes not keeping up.

Happy to answer any questions. Respectfully submitted by: Annie W, GR - Steamboat Springs
