Recovery is not easy, and oftentimes, it can be difficult to find alcohol-free events to attend, which can make the sobriety journey all the more arduous. Outsiders Anonymous — a “nonprofit with the mission of providing free fitness training and an awesome sober community to help you run from relapse and lift you into a life worth living,” according to the website — hosted a fun-filled event this weekend for the recovery community and the community at large to enjoy. Recovery on the Plaza had music by Vance Loggins and Dallas Burrow, amazing tacos by Tacos Pa-Ti and various recovery support services on site and was held at Plaza Park. Above, pictured is Lydia Westmoreland and Hayley Tucker. Right, people enjoying live music by Dallas Burrow. Below left, Dallas Burrow, a proudly sober local musician.
