Butcher Recommendations

New to the area and I am looking for a butcher to get a prime rib for Christmas dinner. Most places that I see when searching are grocery stores. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Hey! Come hang out on Discord.

I could sit here & tell you all the reasons why you should join our server (we're fun, we're silly, we've all made a lot of IRL friends, etc.), but just come see for yourself! This is a 21+ server, so no youngins (sorry, kiddos).

We know there are specific Discords for different cities, regions, etc. for VA, but this is a state wide server designed to make actual friends from all over the state!

La Petite Academy daycare reviews?

Does anyone have experience with La Petite Academy of Leesburg? Toured the facility this week and seems well maintained with good programs, but wanted to hear some first hand experiences. Have a 2 year old whom I’m considering enrolling in daycare for the first time. Thank you

Apartments near Leesburg

I may be moving to the area for school at the end of the year. My school will be in Leesburg, and I’m looking for apartments that are 30 minutes or less from the city. I know the cost of living in this area is high, so does anyone have any apartment recommendations? My only stipulations are <$2000/month and no more than 30 min away. Thank you.

Quiet place to read a book on a weekend evening?

Rust library closes at 5 pm on weekends, leaving me no place to sit and read a book. I’m OK with nursing a drink, if the venue is not too loud.

55+ Communities

After some health issues I want to move my parents closer to me, to a 55+ community. Saw the Birchwood is still building in Ashburn. Thought on that one?

Any other 55+ that are recommended nearby?

Favorite music venues? Big or small

New to the area and have been dying to go to a show around here. Only place I’ve been to so far was a rooftop bar called the crows nest for some chill live music (which was beautiful) so really any recommendations will be very appreciated! I’m 23 from San Francisco, and although I love most music / generas I was soo in love with the crazy goth scene over in SF and really miss it :,) but am hoping there may be a slice of it or something or other over here. And lots of new things of course. Even if I have to travel to DC lol.

Looking to Meet New People and Make Friends

23M. I just got out of college, came back to my home town, and I really want to meet people my age. I enjoy board games, movies, books, video games (unfortunately, mostly "at-home" activities,) and I'm trying to hike more, although I admit it's not something I'm taking strong initiative in. I know of a couple board game shops around the area, and I'm thinking about heading to Rust Library to see if I can find some people in my age range?

The real struggle is I think people my age (early 20s) don't really like to organize officially? I could be dead wrong on that, it's just my own experiences. I guess I just don't know how to find people my age who are organizing.

I am not opposed to going to bars and such, but after college, I really don't want to get into a habit of drinking to make friends.

rehoming dog!

Hi! I'm a 24 year old female looking for help! I am moving across the country in January and I am not able to take my dog: ( the expenses are way to high for me to fly him out there and my family said they will not keep him. I have asked everyone I know if they wanted a dog or give suggestions but I got nowhere. Is there anyone willing to point me in the right direction? He is 9 years old, he's super energetic, silly, and gets along great with kids and other dogs as well! I am not sure how he is around cats. He is not neutered, his birthday is in august and he's very clingy but in a good way! He loves being around people! If someone knows what I can do please let me know. He is also up to date on his shots. Share

Brewery/Winery Recommendations?

My wife and I are staying in an AirBnB this weekend in Bluemont which I know isn't technically Leesburg but we're looking to explore some of the best Breweries and Wineries in the area for our anniversary trip away from the kids. There's honestly an overwhelming amount to choose from so we'd love to hear from some locals in the area on which ones have the best views and vibes. We have our eye on Bear Chase, Dirt Farm, and possibly Hillsboro.

Virtual volunteer opportunity to help Leesburg area nonprofits

Hopefully this is okay to post - I wanted to share a virtual volunteer opportunity to help 240+ nonprofits in the Leesburg area/Loudoun county through an online crowdsourcing project.

We're looking for folks to review the online profiles of local nonprofits on volunteer recruitment websites, checking to make sure their contact information is up-to-date and the profiles have engaging photos. Helping these nonprofits makes it a lot easier for them to connect with local volunteers. The work is 100% virtual and can be done on your own time.

You can sign up here if interested!

Full disclosure: I work Inspiring Service, the organization that is coordinating this effort. We're a national nonprofit that is working to help foster volunteerism. Happy to provide more info.

Looking for People into Music!

My husband and I are new to Leesburg. He’s been talking about wanting to find people to jam with. He loves his music and is missing getting to share that with others. I’ll listen, but I don’t play myself so it’s not like he can discuss it much with me. He’s in his early 30’d and plays the guitar (electric and acoustic) and the bass. Feel free to comment or message! (Only I have Reddit, hence making the post.)

Loud sound in downtown Leesburg last night

Did anyone else hear a loud mechanical engine sound at 2 AM? It sounded like someone was using a gas-powered lawnmower or blower, but it could’ve been a small plane or drone. Lasted almost half an hour.
