    Hey guys,

    I know we've got some recent (and not-so-recent) transplants to NoVA, and I figure it's time we should all meet up and grab some beer and/or dinner together. Or we can skip the beer and have an OC meetup, although maybe that would be better suited for a second meetup. I figure we are the first in a movement in many MDS members who will be fleeing across the Potomac, it would be good to get organized for shoots, but mostly to fight for our rights in VA as well as help our brethren, friends and family trapped in the DPRM. Obviously, any capital region members from MD would be welcome to join in, especially if you're considering a move to the Old Dominion.

    I don't know what works for everyone's schedule, so post up and let us know what sort of meetup you'd prefer. Night, weekend, football, whatever. I guess over the next couple weeks we can discuss and come up with a time that would work for the most amount of people.

    It would be helpful to post up your specific location so we know where to find a central place that's easy for everyone to access. Feel free to nominate a spot.


    Location: Just south of Bailey's Crossroads and am close to Seven Corners, if that's helpful.
    Availability: Weekday evenings 5 PM or later, weekends
    Meetup spot nomination: Dogfish Head Alehouse

    I'm away on business and get back next weekend. anytime after that would work for me. I'm also available weekdays after 5 and weekends (as long as the wife doesn't make any plans for us). I am in Chantilly so I'm pretty much open to shooting, football, beer or whatever.

    Bumpitty..

    So it's looking like a Friday evening meetup may be ok for everyone? I guess we'll let this roll until the weekend, garnering interest, then start finalizing.

    How does Friday, 10/18 sound to everyone so far?

    Anyone can throw out suggestions. :)

    I'll shoot PMs to anyone who showed interest this afternoon to ask.
