Philosophy and Purpose

 

The purpose of the Fall Classic Conference is to carry the message of Alcoholics Anonymous by holding an annual conference to promote the spiritual and social welfare of alcoholics and those interested in recovery.

 

History

 

In 1983, members of Group 266 ("Saturday Night Live"), after holding several successful dances, formed a committee to sponsor an AA conference.  As a result, the first Fall Classic Conference was held in the fall of 1984.  Each year since, a group known generally as the Fall Classic Committee ("Committee") has held a conference in St. Louis.  During the year, special events are held to help pay for the conference.  For many in the recovery community, the Fall Classic has become an annual part of their lives.
