What is an Alano?
You won’t find the definition in the
dictionary, but it is being used world wide. It is a synonym for a place that
recovery groups get together in a safe environment for 12 Step meetings, attend
a function or just sit and chat. Some Alano’s have restaurants and game rooms.
Some are open 24 hours. Currently we are offering a meeting place and a place
for special functions such as potlucks and Alca-thons.
