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.

NASM works for me...super place and easy to get to at Dulles...not a big deal to me but just a reminder there is a $12 parking fee (which includes admission to museum)...
