The Buzz: Special Edition

Greetings! The Buzz is sending a special, early edition for Thanksgiving. Tomorrow is a holiday, when visitors, newcomers and local A.A. members may be in search of meetings and fellowship. We’re sharing info about “alcathons” happening in San Francisco and Marin tomorrow. And remember to check our regular meeting schedule for other meetings happening in S.F. and Marin. 

This special edition of The Buzz takes the place of our regular Friday edition. Look for the next issue to arrive in your inbox next Friday, December 1.
