Changing The Lives of People New to Recovery
We are Not a Glum Lot and we are transforming recovery
Overdose is the leading cause of death for Americans under the age of 50 and a very high percentage of these overdoses occur after a period of abstinence. By showing people in recovery how to feel good, feel happy, feel excited without drugs or alcohol, their dependency diminishes greatly and their chance to enjoy life without relapse skyrockets.
Your donation helps us to show people new to recovery how to navigate the ups and downs of life as sober individuals with the mindset of having fun, joyful and fulfilling life without the need of substances. After all...WE ARE NOT A GLUM LOT!!

Why This Matters (Like, Really Matters)
We've all heard the statistics. But here's what the numbers don't capture: People get sober, then sit at home wondering "now what?" They've learned how not to die. But nobody taught them how to LIVE.
That's where we come in. And that's where YOU come in.
Since 2018, we've helped 6,000+ Texans discover that recovery isn't the end of fun - it's just the beginning. Every event we throw is proof that the best memories happen when you're actually present for them.
Here's the Deal: We Make Sobriety So Fun, People Forget It's "Recovery"
Picture this: 100+ people at Zilker Park, crushing it at cornhole, demolishing FREE pizza, and laughing so hard they can't remember why they ever thought sobriety would be boring. Or 50 friends conquering their fears on wakeboards, screaming with pure joy (the good kind). Or 80 warriors covered in paint, proving that natural adrenaline beats any high.
That's what your sponsorship creates. Pure. Sober. Joy.

![? WHAT AN INCREDIBLE DAY ON THE RIVER! ?
Yesterday's Float the River adventure was absolutely AMAZING! Over 70 members of our recovery community came together for a perfect day of sunshine, laughter, and pure sober joy floating down the San Marcos River.
From the moment our buses left to the final splash, this day was everything we hoped for and more. Watching new friendships form, hearing genuine laughter echo across the water, and seeing our community thrive together in nature – THIS is what recovery looks like when we support each other! ? The smiles in these photos tell the whole story. Recovery doesn't have to be glum – it can be adventurous, connected, and absolutely joyful when we're surrounded by people who understand the journey.
? BIG NEWS COMING! ?
We've got something HUGE to announce about our remaining summer events, and you won't want to miss it! Visit our website [www.wearenotglum.org] and sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know what we have planned for the rest of the summer. Trust us – you're going to want to clear your calendar! ?
To everyone who joined us on the river: THANK YOU for bringing your energy, your stories, and your beautiful selves. To our community watching from afar: we can't wait to see you at the next adventure!
