~  Venue  ~

The Virginia Patriot Region has been meeting at the Fairfax County Police Association Hall.  Located at 5625 Revercomb Court in Fairfax, VA (22030).  Many of our Region members belong to the Association.  Those of you that are not familiar with the facilities may wish to peruse their  website at: http://www.thefcpa.org/index.html.  This property offers a nice informal (yet personal) setting for our meetings. 

Members have enjoyed a variety of different meals at our meetings there, e.g., catered buffet, potluck, chili dinner, cold cuts, etc.  Various members have been providing some special treats.  We usually discuss future plans at the meetings and the newsletter gives us a "heads-up".  It really helps if we can have an approximate headcount by the Monday before our meetings for planning purposes.  As a courtesy, please give the regional President a call at 703 391-9160, or e-mail him at Soyfer@msn.com  if you can attend.  We hope to see you there.
