If you are in the PNW toward the end of July I just added a Young Peoples Conference (WSCYPAA VII) taking place in Tacoma WA. If you have never been to a Young Peoples event (your age does not matter) the energy and passion of the participants never fails to impress. I spoke to someone involved in it last night and based on how enthusiastic he was this will be no exception. Details: https://scast.us/wscypaa7

This one needs a little context, I know many of you are familiar with the Joe & Charlie Big Book Workshops (I recently posted one 2.7.24) in 2005 at a J & C workshop Willie B and John W went through the 12 steps in the same manor as Joe and Charlie but using the 12 x 12 as the reference.

Both workshops were presented side by side over the same weekend providing an in-depth look at the steps from both the Big Book and the 12 x 12 at the Boca Raton Florida Big Book Weekend held in 2005.

Willie B of Spring Texas got sober in 1957, she was 48 years sober at the time of this presentation about steps 10, 11 and 12. This is the last speak of the 9 part series, I do have the other 8, if you are interested in hearing them please drop me an email.
