Folks in Dumbo Brooklyn (or elsewhere): There's a new AA meeting at 100 Jay Street 2nd floor. Wednesday's at 1pm. It's a good time.

All good. I caught the correction. Thanks, though.

Unrelated: finding the presence of an AA sub-group in an app already rooted in anonymity mildly amusing. Not sure if it's "meta" but it's definitely...something?

Surprised it's not more active but suppose that means we're all working whatever program we need to be...without the help of Fishbowl, hah.

So perfect for me today! Thanks to everyone showing up

Sorry, it's 5O Jay, not 100 Jay.

Thanks for the reco. Passed on to a fellow, non advertising AA. Heard there's a dearth of meetings over there so hopefully it will pick up!

Cool. Yeah, it's 50 Jay, not 100, though. Wasn't able to revise original post.

Hoping to make it there today! In a meeting but be there shortly
