How to Reach the

Each evening before the main event, a few of the NoVaDWVS
members like to get together to catch a bit of supper before the show.
We have choosen Fuddruckers resturant as our establishment of
convenience and choice. Fuddruckers is located at 3575 Chain Bridge
Road, Fairfax, VA; at the north-east corner of Chain Bridge Road
(Route 123) and Main St. (US 29).
Coming from the North and South West
Take I495 to I66 West. From I66, get off at exit 62, Chain Bridge
Rd. south. At the intersection of Chain Bridge Rd. and US 29, take a
left and then another immediate left into the car dealership. Drive around
and behind the car dealership to get to Fudruckers.
Coming from the North West
Take either the Dulles Toll Road or Sunrise Valley Rd. until it
becomes Hunter Mill Rd. south. Follow Hunter Mill Rd. for a couple of
miles until you reach Lawyers Rd. Take a left onto Lawyers Rd. and
follow it until you come to Chain Bridge Rd. in Vienna. Take a right onto
Chain Bridge Rd. and follow it for aproximately 2 miles until you reach

From the Resturant to the Government Centre
Getting from the resturant to the government centre is easy. As we
all leave as a group you can simply follow the regulars to the meeting or
if you get lost simply take US 29 South/West for about 2 miles until you
reach Monument Dr. Take a right onto Monument Dr. and then a left at the
second light onto Government Centre Parkway. If you took the first
light by accident this is also Government Centre Parkway because it loops
around. If you come from the reverse direction, the Government Centre will
eventually be on your right, otherwise it should be on your immediate left.
