Our events are scattered throughout the DMV, but specifically in Northern VA. Review the meetup group regularly to check out upcoming events. The goal is to have at least two events per month. If you have any suggestions or want to host an event, please send me an email.
Group Rules and Expectations ( Updated 7/13/24)
I want all members to feel welcome and loved. While that is the goal, I understand this doesn't always happen. If any member poses any potential harm or drama in the group, then they will be removed.
Event Waiver:
Waiver, release of liability, and hold harmless agreement. I understand that I have joined this group by choice. I hearby release group leaders from liability for and waive any and all claims from any loss, damage, injuries, etc. Further I agree to abide by group policies, rules, event guidelines and membership policies in which I am voluntarily participating in. By joining this group, whether in the past or moving forward, you are bound to this expectation.
New RSVP Policy
*At times, there will be RSVP's expected for group members. Please update your RSVP at least 24 hours in advance. If you are going to be more than 30 minutes late, do not sign up. Look for future events, that can accommodate your schedule.
1/24/2025: For events, there must be at least 3 people that have RSVP'd, otherwise the event will be cancelled.
Your membership is free and completely volunteer at will , which means the organizer can remove any member at any time with or without cause, notice, or explanation.
I look forward to meeting you soon!
