Not to sound like one of those snobs but the guy who’s asking for money on the intersection of temporary road has gone up to both my sisters and girlfriends car, then when the light turns green he stands in front of the cars. He told my girlfriend to roll down the window so that they can have a friendly conversation since she’s so pretty, and repeatedly asked her to roll down the window after she refused. When I was driving by at 4 pm I saw a cop watching him from the apartment building, but my girlfriend saw him around 6pm, and he didn’t have a sign he was just standing there, so I don’t know if anyone has already reported him. Has anyone else experienced this?

37f in search of some local fitness classes here in Reston. Must be budget friendly - no more than $50 pm.

I see there's an LA Fitness o we in Herndon with some great classes but I'm unlikely to have access to our car.

Am searching for anything in North Reston - yoga, Pilates, aerobics etc.

Throw me your recommendations, pls! Any free workouts via Meetup.com or donation based park classes - anything like that.

Reston Association members could see an increase in member fees next year.

The association’s staff have proposed a draft budget that includes a $865 yearly assessment — a 5.9% increase that would help cover salary increases and a $103 contribution per member to RA’s capital improvements plan...

Hi, I'm looking for any affordable cleaners who service homes in Reston. Would really appreciate any recommendations. Thanks.

Went into Red's first time in a few months, didn't recognize anybody (staff or patrons). Did they have a turnover?

A combined basketball and futsal court is set to open next Thursday, Oct. 3 at Stratton Woods Park (2431 Fox Mill Road) in Reston.

An agency spokesperson has said the tests will detect current virus strains and can be ordered ahead of the holiday season, when families and friends gather for celebrations.

U.S. regulators last month approved an updated COVID-19 vaccine that is designed to combat the recent virus strains and, hopefully, forthcoming winter ones, as well. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention already has recommended this fall’s shot for everyone age 6 months and older.

While most Americans have some degree of immunity from prior infections or vaccinations or both, that protection wanes. Last fall’s shots targeted a different part of the coronavirus family tree, a strain that’s no longer circulating.

Does anybody know any good areas/ meet ups/ conversation clubs in the Reston area for speaking Japanese? Lived there for 4 years, then worked at a Japanese school in San Diego and recently relocated to Herndon. I don't want my skills to get too rusty!

Anyone have any idea what’s going on with this potential Biergarten? I was on that side of town and saw the sign. The sign looked old so I checked the website. It said they purchased the building in 2019??
