I just accepted a new job, but it is near Washington DC in Northern Virginia. Are there any girls here that are in the FairFax/Alexandra area? Does anyone know of a TG support group in the DC area?

Hi, JoAnn -

Congrats on the new job!! =D> =D>

In the DC area, there are several support groups, most notably the TGEA of which SharonRose and several other ladies are members; feel free to contact her for more info, as I believe she is/was the Membership Chairperson. Virginia, DonnaT and myself have attended a few of their Holiday Galas and had a wonderful time.

There is also a TriEss group in the Baltimore area, but I have no further info on them; as I believe you are already a TriEss member, you should be able to find a local group through their directory.

Forum member-wise, there are quite a few who live in NOVA and the surrounding areas {DonnaT, Davita, SharonRose} and they should be able to provide you with more information.

uuummmm eerrrrrr.... I have never attended any support groups and so I only know they exist, but that's all.

My next days out en fem will be June 13, 14, 15 and 18. Mark your calendars. I always need lunch dates and after hours. Let's see if we can get together.

JoAnn,

I would be happy to connect you with the local TG groups. As Silver Lady mentioned, I used to be the membership director of TGEA. I am still active in the group. Their website is http://www.tgea.net" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

In addition, there are several other groups in the area, including groups on Meetup and Yahoo for TGirls that like to socialize. If you send me a private message, I will fill you in on the rest.

JoAnn,

I forgot to mention that I live in the same area of Northern Virginia (Fairfax County) as your new job (and I am familiar with Alexandria too), so I can also offer advice on the non-TG related stuff as well if you are interested.

-wel- to Northern Virginia, almost. Traffic is worse here than in the Dallas area.

Just got back from a 7 day cruise, so couldn't post earlier.
