Los archivos el trabajo de servicio es la actividad custodial más no más; es los medios por qué nosotros coleccionamos, la confitura y comparte la herencia rica y significant de nuestro Compañerismo. Está por la colección y compartiendo de estos importante los elementos históricos que nuestra gratitud colectiva para los Alcohólicos Anónimo se ahonda."

Annual Events: Open House: Held in March to mark the anniversary of moving in the repository in Colton. It was created to bring attention to the Archives and give past Delegates an opportunity to share about their past service commitment.
Heritage Day: Held in October and is designed for a panel of Old timers to sharing what AA was like when they got sober and how Service helped to keep them sober.
Membership: The Archives Committee is made up of both members of the area assembly and members who just want to help preserve our history. There is no requirement to join our committee other than a reasonable amount of sobriety and a desire to learn and preserve AA’s history.
Projects: The Archives Committee is currently involved with gathering of Group Histories throughout Southern California. Once the histories are gathered, hopes are to somehow publish them in some sort of booklet.
