This is a GIRLS ONLY group; NO BOYS ALLOWED. Sorry boys. ALL EVENTS ARE HELD IN STERLING, RESTON, HERNDON, ASHBURN, and LEESBURG AREAS with very few held outside those areas.

A group for people itching to just get out and do something - anything - but particularly something new. Maybe you're new to the area. Maybe your boyfriend/girlfriend falls asleep at 6 p.m. Maybe you lost your cell phone, or all your other friends got eaten by sharks.

This group is intended for women in their 20s and 30s that are interested in making some new girlfriends and live and/or work in the Tysons/Falls Church/Vienna/McLean areas. There are some great meetup groups on here but their activities are centralized in Arlington/DC and it's just too hard to make it to them during the week with the traffic! I was thinking we could plan to meet up for dinners, movies, happy hours, or anything else anyone is interested in.  Also, on Friday nights and on the wee …

DWCA is just what it sounds like – diverse women of that “certain age” – definitely over 40 but could be over 45, 50, 55 or whatever– who have real life problems/successes/challenges that they want to talk about and deal with in a supportive and nurturing group environment. As women we all face common issues, whatever our relationship status, race, religion, ethnicity, etc.  Many of us are facing transitions……going through (or contemplating) a change in relationship status, career, kids moving o …

It doesnt matter where you're from, what color you are, your age, weight, backgroud, marital status, etc, as long as you're a woman......this group is for you. Thi …
