How far away are the meetings listed for Athol?

Some are. 25 of the 32 above are outside Athol, the nearest of them in Fitzwilliam, and each row says which town and how far.

What should I expect walking into a meeting in Athol?

The format is usually announced at the start, so you can follow along. What people talk about is their own drinking and what they do about it, not yours. The hour runs to a shape, and the shape is the part nobody tells you in advance.

Are online AA meetings as good as going in person?

Yes. A lot of people began online and moved to a room later. A room in person gives you the conversation afterward, while an online meeting takes travel out of it and makes an unfamiliar hour easier to try. If nothing nearby fits your hours, an online meeting is worth looking for.

What does a sponsor actually do?

Someone further along who agrees to take your calls and answer honestly. People change sponsors, and doing so is not treated as a failure by anyone. Asking in person after a meeting works better than asking during one.
