Annual Roundup 2005

[ Program ] [ Registration ] [ Venue Information ] [ Brochure ]

Friday to Sunday
14th to 16th Jan 2005
The Carlton Crest Hotel
65 Queens Road
Melbourne Victoria Australia

With Al-Anon & Alateen Participation

The theme for the 2005 Roundup is:

"Step into the sunlight of the Spirit"

"It is plain that a life which includes deep resentment leads only to futility and unhappiness. To the precise extent that we permit these, do we squander the hours that might have been worth while. But with the alcoholic, whose hope is the maintenance and growth of a spiritual experience, this business of resentment is infinitely grave. We found that it is fatal. For when harboring such feeling we shut ourselves off from the sunlight of the Spirit. The insanity of alcohol returns and we drink again. And with us, to drink is to die."
