Looking for the new NoVA "East" Social location

[isjoey]

BMW NCC members,

First, I would just like to say the new NoVA "West" Social location at Lost Rhino Retreat was a success and will make for a great social location.

While BJs is a good location, I feel we need to move the "East" location in order to better cover the NoVA area. Based on some feedback, etc. I have received it looks like the Alexandria to Springfield area along 495 would be the general area.

The location pretty much needs to be able to accommodate the following.

-Fairly easy to access
-Enough parking for approx. 20 cars
-A reservation for up to 20 people or so on Thursday nights
-Not too expensive
-Preferably not at a large shopping mall

A couple suggestions/ideas:
-Clyde's at Mark Center
-Hoffman Town Center - Ted's

I would like to have the new location selected by 06/29, looking for the first social at the location to start in September.

Thank you!
-Joe

How about fairfax corner pf changs

Looks like Fairfax Corner would certainly have the parking we need. The location might be a little further West than the target area. Although, I feel we should keep this location in mind.

Not sure if there was a decision made, but Port City Brewing (Wheeler Ave in Alexandria) is a pretty chill place. There is a lot across from it that I think is open to the public (I could be wrong) and a short drive to get back to 495.

Chipotle

Potomac Yard has plenty of free parking, is strategically located on Highway One, and, most importantly. Is about a mile from my house.

NOVA East location still being discussed?

[isjoey]

Yes, still being discussed and planned.

Thinking we will trying some new things with the NoVa social starting in April or May. Something like a nice restaurant one month, casual the next, outside in summer, social on a Saturday, etc., over a larger area to reach more NCC members.

Thanks!
