Washington DC Chapter [Del Ray Club in Bethesda, MD]

Hi totmacher,

Thank you for doing this.

What is the address of the Del Ray Club? Are they suppose to go in the back door or something?

Liz

I can't make it this Sunday. Wishing you all the best.

Could someone tell me when the next face-to-face meeting is in WDC/Bethesday? I know meetings are every other Sunday but I don't know when they fall.

Thank you

Hi Thomas, I updated the first post to show this. Thank you for your service! Sincerely, Liz

So, what time is the meeting over at Del Ray. I saw one posting saying 2pm and one saying 5pm. My homegroup for a sister fellowship is HJF in Silver Spring, MD at 7:30pm Sunday nights. I'd love to check out OLGA, but there is no solid time. My number is 2409388302, feel free to give me a call or text. Calling would be appreciated, as it is the best way to get in contact with me.

Thanks,

Blargley

I will be in DC in November. Anyone want to meet up?

Came to del ray at 5. There is no OLGA meeting at the del ray club going on today apparently.

I wanted to show up,but I need the exact info. I tried calling the google talk number and it wouldn't go through. I'm new and I'd really like to be able to go to physical meetings if possible.

YES!!!!! I would very much like to meet/hopefully have my son and husband meet you. We live north of Baltimore, but would very much like to reserve some of your time, if we can work that out. Please let me know, Dr. Doan. THANK YOU!!!

Do you ever meet in Virginia? Is this even an active group?

HI, I just stumbled on your group. I am going to communicate your meeting to my son Dillon. Hopefully he will attend this sunday. Great for him to have a place to speak about this! CC

Hello all- I know that an OLGA meeting is still listed on the Del Ray club's website for Sunday at 5 pm. I know I plan to be there this coming Sunday (1/4/15), but I don't know anything about the meeting's attendance.

I would love to see a meeting be formed at the Dupont Circle Club, whose AA and OA meetings I've been frequenting to get some twelve-step support. When I spoke to them on Saturday about starting up an OLGA meeting, they did say they had some open slots. I highly recommend the DCC over Del Ray, since DCC is half a block from the Dupont Circle Metro (Q Street Exit), and is very well-organized and has lots of friendly people.

A weekday evening (except Wednesdays) would work very well for me personally, but I'll defer to the needs of the group if they don't mesh.

Did anyone make it on Sunday? I used to go regularly a couple of years ago. The location ended up not being good for me.

If there were a group in Dupont, how many people would come?

I would go to a meeting in Dupont on Saturday anytime, or Sunday afternoon.

I went last Sunday at 1 pm because that's when I remember the club was last meeting each week. But there was no meeting. The pamphlet of the AA club that the OLGA club borrows a room from says OLGA meets at 5 pm on Sundays. I will try to go this Sunday at 5. Anybody on here know for sure they will go, or if the meeting is regularly taking place?

Hi, Please stay for the meeting. If no one else arrives, we ask that you take personal responsibility and chair the meeting. Ask someone from a different meeting to join you (this is called inter-mingling and it is allowed). There are many people who want to attend this meeting if we can get someone to "be there".

Here is a link to the readings for the meeting. Please print it out and bring it with you.

"I am responsible . . .
When anyone, anywhere, reaches out for help,
I want the hand of O.L.G.A. always to be there.
And for that: I am responsible."

Should you want to hold a meeting on a different day or time, please let me know.

Thank you for your service.

Sincerely,

Liz

I would be interested in meeting, if there are still others that want to meet.

Can I get a confirmation on when/where the meetings are? Looks like there was a little bit of discussion about different locations, and I wanna make sure I go to the right one. :-P

ChuckMoney, the meetings are in the Del Ray AA meeting place in bethesda md. That is at the top of the thread, but it is hard to find and it is also not the "del ray sport and health club" in bethesda, which was a previous location long ago of that AA club.

Not sure if I am going today.

Hello everyone, my name is Steven Hassan. My family and I are in the process of moving back to Frederick MD after six years overseas. My daughter Fatin is, I believe, an addict (my poison is alcohol and I am currently in recovery). Is anyone interested in creating or re-starting this group? My phone number is 571-408-1944. E-mail is stevenhassan.2004@gmail.com

Thanks.

Hi, 

My name is Cliff Sussman, MD. I am a psychiatrist who treats video game addiction in Chevy Chase, D.C.  I was wondering if this group still meets. I would love to sit in on a meeting. I haven't seen a reply to this forum on a while so I just want to be sure. 

I don't think it is running anymore

This group is re-starting.

There will be a meeting tonight and no meeting next week (8/30/19).

Hi,

I am interested in joining the face-to-face meeting.  Will there be a meeting this Friday?  Thanks,

Hi peace

I would guess the answer is ' it is most likely', but

I suggest you either PM kangaroo2

or call the venue on (301) 718-7769 to check if the room is booked

Hi peace323, yes there was a meeting on 2019/11/29 at 7 - 8 pm.

This week, on 2019/12/6, there will be no meeting since I have other, irregular duties. 

I hope to see you soon in person.

For the next 8 weeks I won't be able to attend. There might not be a meeting at all

Thanks for the info
