Are there any local hiking clubs? I know it’s getting pretty cold but I’m wanting to get out on the trails and meet people as I’m new to the area. If there isn’t an existing one, would anyone be interested in starting one? Even if it’s just planning for warmer weather for now (though I’d still be willing to bundle up and get out there too.)
I’m 23 years old and recently got a job in the Wheeling area. Looking for some sort of Protestant church in the area with a large young adult population. Young adult fellowship, Bible studies, etc. a plus. Don’t really care about the denomination or worship style, but don’t care much for churches that spend excess time talking about political/culture war issues. Anyone got any suggestions?
Hi! Visiting for a week, is uber/lyft more available in the area now??? I came here a few years back and couldn’t get a ride from downtown after bars closed so just wondering what the situation is now
Fuck you
Moving to the Wheeling area for work soon temporarily and trying to find some furnished rentals that’ll work for my budget
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Anyone it the mood to come and play
Does anyone use Starlink Internet in Wheeling? If so, how is the speed/reliability and how much are you paying per month?
The wife and I are in Wheeling this week and came across this beautiful structure. I was hoping some long-term residents have any information or stories to share about this home!
I had to drive past the Elm Grove Domino's lot a few moments ago and saw a calico cat bunkered down near the bushes. Traffic was moving thru there and the adjacent street, so I'm worried for the cat's safety. Anyone know if it is a pet or a stray? I couldn't stop to see if it had a collar or anything.
I have Care Source...does that happen to cover gender affirming (HRT for trans men/women) for free/discounted? does anyone thats an ally/lgbtq+ member know? 🥺
I am a reporter and am curious what folks' experiences have been with the C3 in Wheeling, as some other C3/"Awaken" churches have faced allegations of exploitative behavior in the past. Feel free to dm.
Hi, I'm a WVU student and I'm doing research for my English class, if you have the time could you please take this quick survey for my class? My topic is why are so many West Virginians' stay/leaving the state. I'm trying to get a broad demographic so a response is very appreciated.
We’ll be in town for two nights this weekend. Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th. Come hang out with us!
I'm in town for the weekend and I'm looking to forage some edible mushrooms. Anyone have recs for spots that are nearby / in driving distance?
I’ll just leave this here.
I hope these women get justice after all these years
Hello, I would like to make this post to to share my story and for others to be aware and to save someone from going through this. I am a single mother who is now homeless with a 9 month old baby. I have spent all my money and have nowhere to go and no formula to even feed my son. They have completely ruined my life.
I am a 24 year old single mom (father doesn't live with us but helps where he can) and after splitting with my son's father I was renting from Matt and Nancy. I painted and redid a few things in the apartment which Matt was ecstatic about and encouraged. My sons dad even mowed some of the lawns for their apartments. One day I was in the driveway and Matt asked if I could be out by the next day, ( Friday Sept 6th. I was kind but ultimately said no. I thought it would be way too difficult with a baby. Saturday Sept 7th, Matt randomly writes my son's dad and offers to give me $1000 ($650 security deposit + $350 additional) to move out the following day. He said, that he had someone that wanted our specific apartment. I was paid up for the month of September. At first I said no, it would be too hard but later I agreed.
So we immediately rented a U-Haul, bought a storage unit, and prepared everything to move. We worked from 6am to 3pm the next day. That whole night Matt was messaging and calling my son's dad saying he has the money for us and to get done asap. He will give it to us right then and there, etc etc. We would have been done sooner but my 9 month old son had to go to the emergency room. (He is now okay.)
We loaded the U-Haul and Matt was there cleaning the neighboring apartment. We asked if we could come back for our mattress because we didn't think it could fit in the U-Haul and because our son was crying nonstop... but he said no. So we spent another hour rearranging things until it could fit, while my son was very upset no matter how much I tried to calm and comfort him. He needed to nap and that wasn't possible at the time.
Afterwards my sons dad asks him for the money and he says he will send it right now on cashapp.
We waited for hours and tried contacting him but he completely ignored us. We had planned to use the money for an apartment we found, but without that money we lost that apartment.
Matt and Nancy now have the apartment on Facebook for rent.. even though he told us that there was someone that wanted it and that is why I had to get out.
So with no place to go, all my money spent, I am now homeless and living out of my car. My tank is on E so I can't drive very far.
I have tried contacting over 20 homeless shelters/women's shelters.
But there is no room in any of them.
We have no place to go.
I have been suffering with severe postpartum depression since my son was born, and just when I thought things were looking up.. this happened.
I feel like a horrible parent, I feel so dumb for allowing myself to be conned. I have now found myself in a very very dark place and I honestly just hope that I can make it out alive. I ran out of formula yesterday for him and have been trying to contact charities for help all day today.
I hate to say it but I am extremely depressed and suicidal. I don't know what to do but I can't stop crying. If anyone knows where I can get help, I am now in the Washington PA area. That is where the apartment was I was supposed to rent.
I will try to attach receipts for all information stated. I have pictures of the apartment before and after move in aswell. I am new to Reddit.
It's a longshot since it's such a nice hobby, but I'm looking for anyone else here that plays board games. Scythe, Wingspan, Tiny Epic series, etc.
I was gifted Frosthaven for my birthday and when I lived in FL, I hosted weekly games with my friends for it's predecessor Gloomhaven and that campaign lasted over two years! Well I'm not in FL anymore but would love to host a weekly Frosthaven night here in Woodsdale.
I'm also up to bringing shorter games with me to public spaces to meet more of you (if you're out there).
Hello everyone, I am a relatively new driver and will be in Wheeling for a conference in October. I'll have to rent a vehicle and drive from Pittsburgh Airport. I was wondering how the drive will be like, is it a drive a new driver will be comfortable navigating. This will be my first time driving outside new mexico. So I don't really know what to expect
I'll appreciate any comments or feedback
