By popular demand, the 69th Annual Stepping Stones Lois' Family Groups Picnic, which was originally presented live on June 6, 2020, will be reshown in an anonymity-protected rebroadcast. A.A., Al-Anon, and Alateen speakers faces will not be shown but the ASL interpreter will be shown.

The event starts with an introduction by Stepping Stones President and Executive Director. Next is a history interview with a relative of Ebby T. Back in 1934, Ebby - friend from Bill W.'s youth - had a few months sober and carried a message of recovery to Bill W. that helped inspire Bill to try to get sober.  Following the interview is a Stepping Stones overview, messages from friends of Stepping Stones and the Wilsons, and the traditional open speaker meeting with A.A., Al-Anon, and Alateen speakers. The A.A. speaker knew the Wilsons and the Al-Anon speaker had a chance to meet Lois years ago. Please note that audio/visual quality of a Zoom reshowing of a recording may not be the same quality as the original presentation.

Organizer: Stepping Stones, the historic home and archives of Alcoholics Anonymous Cofounder Bill Wilson and Al-Anon Family Groups Cofounder Lois Wilson in Katonah, New York.
