McHenry’s Soberfest is an annual conference put on by the McHenry’s Soberfest Group of Alcoholics Anonymous Northern Illinois Area 20. If you are wanting to talk to someone about yours or a loved one’s drinking or drug use, please see the links to our Friends.
McHenry’s Soberfest has meetings and activities for AA members, Al-Anon members, Alateens, and our guests. There are AA and Al-Anon speakers Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

There are even shops with recovery related jewelry, clothing, and literature.
