There has been much controversy over Sobriety Group Closing and restarting at this point in our history however the records are accurate and consistent. Although there was much distention in the group April of 86 with many of the group officers resigning this was mostly over arguments about drug addicts and group guidelines or lack there of. People not being responsible for the room and bad behavior particularly at evening meetings. Although the group may have been chaotic it did remain consistent and survived made the transition almost seamlessly. The vote to move to 169 York Rd was 38 in favor 1 opposed. The record of the business meetings are accurate and preserved next business meeting was held at the new location on 9/3/1986.
