Who we are
We are a group of 18 recovering alcoholics, both men and women, ranging in age from 27 to 76 and sobriety from a few weeks to over 30 years.
When and Where we meet
The book Alcoholics Anonymous describes us well in the chapter "There is a Solution", it says "We are average Americans. All sections of this country and many of its occupations are represented, as well as many political, economic, social, and religious backgrounds. We are people who normally would not mix. But there exists among us a fellowship, a friendliness, and an understanding which is indescribably wonderful. We are like the passengers of a great liner the moment after rescue from shipwreck when camaraderie, joyousness and democracy pervade the vessel from steerage to Captain's table. Unlike the feelings of the ship's passengers, however, our joy in escape from disaster does not subside as we go our individual ways. The feeling of having shared in a common peril is one element in the powerful cement which binds us. But that in itself would never have held us together as we are now joined."
We are in District 13 of Delegate Area 26 of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Our Group held it's first meeting on November 3rd 1977, we are the oldest AA Group in Bullitt County, KY. Originally called the "Hebron Group" we met at the Hebron Presbyterian Church on the corner of Preston Highway and Hebron Lane. There was a flashing yellow light at the intersection. This church is about 6 to 8 miles south of the Louisville, KY city limits. Everyone who wanted to find our meeting would ask how to get there and we would tell them to head south on Preston till you get to the caution light. We decided in 1981 to change the name of the group to "The Caution Light". Initially a speaker or "lead" meeting we have since become an open discussion meeting.
We left Hebron Presbyterian in the late 80's and moved to Little Flock Baptist Church, at Preston Highway and Zoneton Road.
We stayed there about 2 years until they built a new Church just south of the old church. We were asked by the church to find another meeting facility.
We moved from Little Flock to our present 'home' in December of 1991.
