Congrats on your sobriety.
The way it was explained to me, when I was new and going to a local beginner's meeting, is that it's meant to be a meeting that focuses more on issues facing beginners, and to familiarize newcomers to AA with meeting structure and protocol. I'm not sure; that's how it was when I was new, though it may be different at different meetings. I'm fairly certain the desired outcome is to help beginners feel safe and comfortable and welcome.
