Default NOVA/DC/MD crew....

I'll have Grumpy's hat this week. I'd like to set something up that would be easy for NOVA/DC/MD to get to.

Somewhere on 95 I would think...LOOKING for ideas.

BTW- I am sorry for not posting all the specifics. Grumpy is a CF moderator that provided his hat to raise money for St. Judes and as a way for local CF members to get together. I'll be sponsoring such an event-just looking for a convienvent spot to catch the DC area.

I would like to have a CF get together to raise a couple of $$ for St.Judes and to takes some pics for the hat's journey. Refer to the link in the first post and see the hat's travel.
