MCYPAA Digital Archives

Enjoy a journey though the memories and history of the convention

A Brief Convention History

MCYPAA 1 was hosted in Ann Arbor in 1979. Michigan is lucky to have one of the longest-running YPAA (young people of AA) conventions in the country! MCYPAA has been held in 13 different areas in Michigan over its 44 years and its location changes each year. The Lansing and Grand Rapids areas have each hosted the convention seven times.

We treasure the memories, smiles, and hope that is invoked by these archives and hope that you do too!
