--MEETUP INFORMATION--

I will arrive around 4:45 PM (if no one let's me know if they are joining for dinner, I'll arrive around 6:00 PM). I will be wearing a black cap with GEEK on the front. I will post on this page and on Discord when I arrive and let you all know my location.

A #nerds channel will be created on the GNO Discord server before the event. It's to help everyone communicate and find the group. You can join the Discord server here: [https://discord.gg/d4e9MKScVP ](https://discord.gg/d4e9MKScVP)(link should be permanent. Please let me know if it stops working)

METRO: DC9 is about a two-minute walk from the U Street Metro Station (use the Memorial exit if it's open) along the Green and Yellow lines.
