Club 24 is in its 59th year of operation. (Founded in 1949) We began as the AA Club at 50 Queen Street and incorporated under the Nova Scotia Societies Act in May of 1951. Club incorporation information is available through Service Nova Scotia Joint Stock Registry. The club operated in rental space until 2001 when the existing building at 3 Dundas Street was purchased.

Club 24 observes the principals of Alcoholics Anonymous 12 Steps & 12 Traditions. (as do similar successful clubs in Canada.) We are committed to people with a desire to overcome the disease of alcoholism
SINCE THE EARLY DAYS... There have always been AAs who have sought a place to go for coffee and conversation; a spot where members could gather for lunch; a place where they could gather socially on weekends and holidays. In 1947, Bill W. wrote a Grapevine article on clubs that became part of our pamphlet "A.A. Tradition—How It Developed." The title carried the question, "Clubs in A.A.—Are They With Us to Stay?" Today, the answer to that question can be "yes." The success and the endurance of the club idea can be ascribed to the wisdom and guidance expressed in Bill's article and to the willingness of club-minded A.A.s to help make them work. These AAs make it possible for a club to function effectively without detracting from AA's source of recovery—the A.A. group. Experience demonstrates that a club can live in harmony with the A.A. community and serve a very useful purpose for those who find a club helpful.
