Members old and new are welcome, and please feel free to bring any projects you might be working on. <br><br>I will be providing some food and drinks, but, because
attendance is unpredictable, I would ask the experienced members to try to bring a dish/refreshment/desert to share. Newcomers need only bring yourselves (unless you WANT to bring something else).<br><br>Children are welcome as I have 3 of my own. We do have 2 dogs and a cat (who will be sequestered for the evening), so please pre-medicate if you have allergies (if you have an allergy to children...that would probably work as well). <br><br>Please park in the visitor's spaces. My townhome unit is decorated for Halloween and will have a sign on the door that says "SCA" for easy locating. <br><br>My address is as follows:<br><br>7429 Gillingham Row<br>Alexandria VA, 22315 (just south of Springfield Mall)<br><br>Call 703-879-2475 for directions or more info (ask for Andy)<br><br>Until good fortune finds me in your company, I remain:<br><br>Yours in Service, <br><br>Seigneur (Lord) Gefroi le Gris (MKA Andy Hoeffler)<br>Duty - sworn to Hus
Dagensfeld<br>Service-sworn to all<br><br></div></div></div></body></html>
