Region 62 participates in a variety of activities. We usually meet in the Northern Virginia area and have been meeting in several different venues. All IPA members, their families, guests, and all qualified prospective members (active and retired law enforcement officers) are always welcome to come and join us. Meetings will be announced as scheduled.

<> We continue to have IPA visitors arriving. Please click on the active link button to see a list of scheduled visitors and associates that may be arriving.
<> If you have not provided us with a valid e-mail address we may not be able to communicate with you easily. Our region recently prepared a new updated directory of all updated, renewed, and combined members (regions 62 & 7) but there are still far too many gaps on addresses and way too many bad e-mail addresses. Obviously, some will be missing the announcements. Contact the webmaster and provide a valid and email address and other up-to-date contact info and we will update our records thus insuring that you receive all mailings. We can keep your info confidential if you that is what you prefer.
Next scheduled activity / meetings:
Venue will be in the private meeting room at
Eggspectations Restaurant,
5009 Westone Plaza Drive,
Chantilly,
VA 20151. Phone: (703)

MAP/directions.
Take the Westfields Blvd. exit off of route 28 (Sully Road), heading west (or perhaps sw) to Stonecroft Blvd. (should be the first exit). Take a left, followed by another left and Eggspectations will be located in a small mall of stores that parallel Rte 28 in the SW quadrant of the cloverleaf.
We have
enjoyed this location, along with the good service, food, and beverages
for several of our previous meetings.
Come and join us. We hope to see ALL of you there.
<> Wednesday, October 13, 2010 at 1830 (6:30 pm). Eggspectations Restaurant.
<> Wednesday, December 8, 2010 at 1830 (6:30 pm). Eggspectations Restaurant. Our annual holiday party will be held in the private meeting room at Eggspectations. For the first time we will not be bringing dishes and we can all sit back and enjoy a great meal of our choosing.
As per tradition we will have our special “white elephant" gift exchange. So every individual (or couple) please remember to bring that truly special “white elephant" gift that you really want to see someone else open (and you hope to never see again)! An exotic lamp shade, ~or~ the simulated pearline inlaid desk set (with the non-working clock held by the naked hula girl that was left to you by your Uncle Charlie, ~or~ even a Buddha figurine with a tummy to rub for luck could be yours (still sorry that Santa missed me with one of those). Just bring the wrapped gift with no from tag and put it in the pile. Who knows who will get to take it home this year.
Be there, and come in a festive spirit. You are among friends. Don’t forget to bring that "white elephant". Pink elephants come later!
Your ideas and suggestions for locations, events, activities, etc. for these and other activities for our Region are eagerly solicited. A volunteer to head up or even to assist with an activities/events committee would really be great at this point. Contact the webmaster or the president if interested.
~ Recent (past) activities ~Members have enjoyed a variety of different meals, repasts and activities at our meetings at a variety of venues. It is always an informal gathering, wherein we enjoy the fellowship of our members, occasional guests, and discuss items of mutual interest while having fun and an opportunity to get together in a social setting. We have enjoyed picnics, catered buffet, potluck, chili dinners, cold cuts, etc. Various members have also provided some special treats. We usually discuss future plans at the meetings and the newsletter and web page provides us with a "heads-up".
For our "catered" activities,
it
really helps (and is often necessary) if we can get an approximate headcount by the Monday
before our meetings for planning purposes. This is often very hard
to do as cops and those in and around law enforcement (especially those
of us that are retired) seem to hate to commit ourselves to anything.
However, as a courtesy, when requested, please
(pretty
please) give the noted
person a call or drop an
e-mail
to them if you can
attend. We hope to always see you there. Our more recent past activities have included:
Wednesday, February 10, 2010 at 1830 (6:30 pm). Cancelled due to unexpected blizzard. Wednesday, December 9, 2009 at 1830 (6:30 pm). Wednesday, October 14, 2009 at 1830 (6:30 pm). Good attendance & another great time at the venerable Yen Cheng Restaurant.Wednesday, August 12, 2009 at 1830 (6:30 pm). Great attendance & Great time! Venue was the private meeting room at Eggspectations Restaurant, Chantilly, VA 20151.
