Each stick has a recovery topic written on it.&amp;amp;nbsp; We will take turns, randomly picking a stick and then sharing on that topic that was chosen. &amp;amp;nbsp; I first experienced “Popsicle Sticks” at the Thursday Midnight night meeting at the Northwest Alano Club in Wayne Michigan.&amp;amp;nbsp; At first I hated it, then I got used to it, then it became my favorite meeting.&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; Flash forward to 2008ish when the PC Alano club started in Canton, Michigan.&amp;amp;nbsp; On September 28, 2008, the Canton Candlelight meeting started at the PC Alano Club.&amp;amp;nbsp; Soon after that, this style of meeting started on Thursday nights. This style of meeting continues at Canton Candlelight every Thursday at 10:00 pm and is led by are own Matt O. &amp;amp;nbsp; Here’s how it goes. Pick a stick Announce the topic to all Share on the topic Keep the stick Pass the can &amp;amp;nbsp; ______________________________________________________ We asked our listeners about this topic. &amp;amp;nbsp; Now, listeners, If you would like to participate in these weekly surveys, just email me for an invite request.&amp;amp;nbsp; Email me at mark@recoveredcast.com And I will send you an invite to our Recoveredcast Google group.&amp;amp;nbsp; This group receives the show notes for the upcoming show.
