Hi Trina, I've never been to the meetings in Pekin, but I can assure you that nobody will look down on you. There are two meetings in Pekin, Tuesday nite at 6 at Pekin Serenity Building 612 South 3rd Street and at the library Thrusday at 7P 301 South 4th Street Auditorium. There is a good meeting in Peoria that I've been to several times. It's Friday nite at 7P at Center For Creative Living 3117 North Avalon. It's off Forrest Hills between Sheridan and University. I don't really go to too many meetings anymore myself, but they can be a big help meeting some clean and sober people. Best of luck to you. Take care.
