About Us

Welcome to the Westside Club

The West Side Club of Georgetown, Inc., is a private non-profit organization formed to provide a space where 12 step groups can meet. Whether you are the the one stricken from the disease of alcoholism or addiction or if you are coping with a loved one who is still suffering, you have a place to go for recovery. The club is an educational center, a meeting place for 12 step groups, and a fun, positive social environment for those seeking recovery.

Not only are we a facility that provides space for meetings, we also provide literature, serve as a resource hub for recovery, offer a snack bar and organize social and fund raising events. Although many AA 12 step groups hold their meetings here, and the club recognizes and subscribes to the principles and traditions of AA; we are all inclusive and welcome any type of 12-Step groups (NA, OA, CA, Al-anon, GA, etc.) to start meetings and use the space available.

Meetings are currently held seven days a week and the club also provides space for recovery related workshops and seminars. A great location in the heart of Georgetown, three meeting rooms, snack bar, and other amenities, make the Westside Club an ideal facility for recovery groups. The Westside Club sponsors a number of annual events. Major events include the annual New Years Eve Party, Talent Show, Founders Day Dinner, Thanksgiving Day dinner and Christmas Day dinner. Picnics are held on all Summer holidays. In addition to these events, special meetings are scheduled on federal holidays.

Founded in 1981, the Westside Club has been a home for recovery and has played a vital role in the community for 26 years. Meetings, service, recovery, fun, and fellowship have changed the lives of many for the better. Providing a safe, positive environment to facilitate the recovery of those afflicted with addiction — and the loved ones who are affected by the disease — brings us tremendous satisfaction and remains our primary purpose and motivation.
