Early Riser Life Home

If you are new to virtual meetings, that’s Okay. There are plenty of people who can help you. It might be tricky at first, but then it’s pretty easy.

Welcome to the Early Riser Fresh Start Group

If you are NEW to AA, it’s Ok. Join in the meeting and just listen. If you’d like to speak, just wave your hand in front of your camera, or if you are on audio only, just say hello! We are a very friendly and welcoming group.

Due to the COVID-19 Virus, we are using this technology to help people stay together. This is a group in Marlborough, Massachusetts.

We are using Zoom for the video conference technology. Zoom is FREE and you should not even need to download the software, but you might want to if you’ll be attending meetings.

You do not need to have a zoom account.

To join by phone call 1-312-626-6799. Enter the Meeting ID, followed by # : 753 450 041 #. When asked for your Participant ID, just enter #. You will be connected.

Once the call begins, you can use these controls:

To unmute/mute your line:     *6

  • When you want to speak, unmute your phone by pressing *6 so folks can hear you can speak.
  • When not speaking, mute your phone by pressing *6 so folks don’t hear your breathing and background noise.

Raise hand:     *9

  • If the chairperson is monitoring this feature, you can signal that you’d like to speak by pressing *9 to raise your hand.  Otherwise just unmute your line to say you’d like to share.
