LAX Hilton – 5711 W Century Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90045

What is the Birthday Party?

On the second or third weekend of January each year (whichever is MLK weekend), fellows gather in Los Angeles to celebrate the 1960 founding of Overeaters Anonymous by Rozanne S. in the city where it all began. This 3-day conference serves to enhance personal recovery in OA and highlight fellowship and service, with a healthy dose of fun in the evenings. It is also the largest fundraiser of the year for the Overeaters Anonymous Los Angeles Intergroup. Please direct all questions to  bdp@oalaig.org.
