Questions about AA in Big Sur

How many AA meetings are within driving distance of Big Sur?

23 within 20 miles, which is how far this page had to reach to show you a full week. 1 is in Big Sur itself.

Is there an AA meeting every day in Big Sur?

Every day. Tuesday is the busiest with 5 meetings, and no day is empty.

Can I go to a meeting in Big Sur if I am not sure I am an alcoholic?

13 of the 23 listed here are marked open, which means anyone can attend, including family. 4 are marked closed, for people who want to stop drinking.

What is the difference between a group and a meeting?

One group, Big Sur Sunday, and it is linked above with everything it runs.

Where else can I look near Big Sur?

4 nearby cities have a page of its own, the closest being Carmel Valley at 16.5 miles. Each one runs the same rule as this page.

Do I have to give my name at an AA meeting?

Nobody is going to ask you for identification or an address. Anonymity is one of the fellowship's own traditions, which is why the custom is first names and why members do not repeat what they hear. Arriving early is worth it if you would rather not walk in to a full room.

Do AA meetings sign court papers?

Generally yes, though asking before the meeting rather than after is wiser. Some groups sign and some decline, and a group is within its rights either way, so the only dependable step is to ask before the meeting starts. Arriving before the start is the practical answer.
