Silver Falls State Park

Sunday the 27th, meet up in the parking lot at 11am

Here is a Google Map Link

Silver Falls is a beautiful State Park, it has lots of waterfalls, a safe swimming area, hiking trails both long and short. This is a brief 90 minute journey from Portland, about 25 miles east of Salem, or 15 miles south of Silverton, for those who have enjoyed game days there! Activities include hiking for every skill and distance comfort level, there is swimming, and bringing snacks is always encouraged! It is a lovely place just to be!

Rose Festival Fireworks May 25

Celebrate Rose city style!  What is fellowship? It’s simple really, it’s hanging out with us!

You have stepped out of isolation and begun your Journey …

No that you’ve made it into the rooms and maybe even signed up for this email, here’s an opportunity to deepen your recovery:

Come out Friday night May 25th and watch the FIREWORKS with us!!!!

Step Group Challenge!

Are you in a step group?
How many of your people can you bring to this event?
⇐ We will meet right about on the pin, it’s a good idea to come early and claim some turf!

We will be on the east side of the river (Mount Hood side) between the Hawthorne and Morrison Bridges on the walkway that’s called the east bank esplanade.

I’ll be getting there about 7:30 PM so I get a good spot (my self-care), you would be wise to join me then and get yourself a good spot too!

Bring a radio and we can listen to the simulcast! More information is in the link below. I would like to see as many of you there, having as much fun as possible.
There will be a lot of people there and it does get crowded, so bring your patience, be early and bring a chair.
Feel free to call or text me if you get lost: David M 503-329-2517

Please announce this in your meeting!

Heartbeat Silent Disco !
Enjoy some ACA Fellowship in Laurelhurst Park
May 6th from 5-8pm for a Prince vs. Michael Jackson themed Silent Disco!

A Silent Disco event involves a group of dancers using Bluetooth headsets, all tuned into the same DJ. Onlookers hear nothing, but see this group clearly grooving in unison. It’s like a big fun noisy outdoor dance event, only it’s not actually noisy at all! It is surprisingly fun, so check it out!

A few things to notice:
Rafting Registration closes May 15th
Bring your own fun activities!
