Howdy folks! I decided to start this MeetUp because I live in Old Town Alexandria, but am thinking of moving to the Ballston area. So in order to learn more about it, I’d like to meet some “Ballstonians;” (or people who live nearby) and get to know them by hosting fun events, such as Twilight Happy Hour Boat Cruises on the Potomac, Game Nights, and Georgetown Kayaking! :)

Learn to Sail and explore the world! If you already know how to sail, we will be offering opportunities to expand your skills on larger boats both here on the Potomac as well as on the Chesapeake.

Every time I take off, I get an almost overwhelming sense of freedom. It's as if I could go anywhere, and not have to worry about traffic or whether or not a road has been built over a body of water. Then to see things from that perspective - sometimes awe-inspiring scenes of autumn, or a river as the light hits it just so, or the wakes of boats, almost like swans, or the mountains fading into the mist in the distance. Ask any pilot why they fly, but be ready to be there awhile, because we never …
