“I am absolutely amazed that our county has such a remarkable center specifically for helping those seniors with cognitive impairments at all levels. While still relatively new for my spouse, as she gets use to some hours without me, the expert staff at the center is doing their utmost to help her get over the anxiety of being away from myself for a short time as caregiver. And there are so many staff members ready to help each individual. And the day activities they provide for these seniors is fantastic- whether they be seat exercises, music and sing alongs, or art history or movie memories. And then as caregiver, ultimately help me catch up with some time to myself, even though I am still working on some guilt for this time away. They even have caregiver programs to help us thru all this as well. I sincerely thank insight memory care center for providing these amazing services.”

“The church is beautiful and enjoyed a lot of the traditional elements of the mass (the smells and bells) that I had been missing from our usual church. Father Bresnahan gave a great homily. He seems affable with a good sense of humor. I would consider making this our go to parish.”
“I cannot say enough good things about art factory! My son loves taking classes here. He is on the spectrum and has a stutter and everyone has been kind, patient and welcoming which is something he always worries about. He raved about the writing class with Kay and it taught him so much. He was surprised the front desk staff remember him for his second class and this is one of his happy places. Art Factory provides such a valuable outlet for kids who may not take the route of sports or something offered in schools. I love supporting this place and am so happy they are here for kids like my son. The classes are affordable and its an easy location to get to. Wonderful place!”
“Incredibly impressive place. Gave museum a separate review. The complex is beautiful a truly wonderful reuse of a prison. The cute art studios and exhibits are an amazing public service, bravo to those that championed this. Young ladies in visitor's center couldn't have been nicer, including having to listen to be drone on about meeting Ms. Hirshhorn and having lunch with Steve Ivy :) Though I am nominally living in Texas, going to suggest visiting here to my local sister and friends interest in art. Cute place, including the nice brewery, who had to listen to me drone on about Harpoon and Dan. Not sure I will ever be back, but local folks should make sure they check this place out!”

“I would like to sincerely thank Jillian L. Franklin, M.S., CYSA, CCWS at the Vienna Community Center for her outstanding professionalism and dedication. She has always responded to my calls and emails promptly, with patience and kindness, and has taken the time to carefully listen to my concerns. Jillian consistently goes above and beyond to resolve issues efficiently and with great attention to detail.
Her support has made the process of working with the community center smooth and reassuring. It is rare to find someone so committed to both their role and the people they serve. I am very grateful for her help and highly commend her work.”
“Everyone tells you...join a chamber!...what they’re really recommending is finding a true community—and that’s exactly what the Central Fairfax Chamber of Commerce offers.
The Central Fairfax Chamber hosts a wide variety of events—ranging in theme, format, and focus—that make it easy to engage no matter your schedule or interests. Their team is incredibly responsive to email outreach, and they genuinely care about helping members succeed.”
“Medical Missionaries is a true blessing to people both locally and globally.
As a home care occupational therapist, insurance often doesn't cover some of the things people need, such as shower seats or even commode seats. I have been able to get items to give to those who need them, such as shower seats, tub benches, wheelchairs, walkers, rollators, canes and much more.
The items are always clean and in good shape to give to somebody else.
Medical missionary has a strong sense of serving the community, and this is seen by how last year they brought things down to help those who are suffering due to that hurricane in North Carolina. And every month they deliver food to Grundy, Virginia and they do special efforts to make the holidays meaningful for those who live there and are in need.”
“We recently hosted our wedding at **American Legion Post 177 in Fairfax**, and it was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. The venue was perfect for our celebration—spacious, clean, and flexible enough to bring our vision to life. But what truly made the day exceptional was **Destiny, the Event Manager**.
Destiny went **above and beyond** to ensure everything ran smoothly. From the early planning stages to the final wrap-up, she was organized, responsive, and incredibly supportive. Her attention to detail and warm, professional demeanor made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. She played a huge part in making our day so special.
Even more impressive—**Destiny also served as our bartender**, and our guests absolutely loved her! She brought a great energy to the event, kept drinks flowing, and made everyone feel welcome and taken care of. We received so many compliments about how friendly and attentive she was.
If you're looking for a venue with heart, flexibility, and an amazing event manager like Destiny to help bring your day together, we highly recommend **American Legion Post 177**.
**Thank you again to Destiny and the entire team for helping make our brunch wedding so memorable!**”

“KENA Shriners is a great place to visit! They do many FUN activities open to the public. Check on their calendar and find something you would like to do..then go do it!”
“I recommend this to everyone out there! The employees are the sweetest! I wanted to buy a white desk for my daughter to study, and he offered it for $10 dollars! He helped me take it to the front desk to pay and the cashier was so sweet! They even insisted to put in the trunk of my car! I would definitely go back!”
“Nice friendly lodge with a reasonable annual fee, good food, a monthly breakfast open to all, Friday night dinners, weekly bingo, slots, pool tables, and weekly Texas hold em games.”
“A small pond filled with wild life, from turtles sunbathing to ducks swimming. There is also a large single bird that hangs around here. The are has two places where you can sit and relax and a large open field if you want to have a picnic .”
“We are in Centreville and took a homeless woman to the Lamb center, as she lost her ID and needed help getting a new one. They said they could not help her. Even though we are in Fairfax County, they only help within a certain radius of where they are in Fairfax. Just FYI if you were thinking of reaching out for assistance.”
“A great place to go to there's all kinds of activities, field trips to the mall and grocery stores. Plus the staff are wonderful and very helpful. We had the pleasure knowing and working with Kholod & Lyn. They were very experienced and professional. They welcomed my mother and arrange for transportation. Highly recommend this center.”

“They run a small but efficient operation here! They had everything listed on their website in stock and ready to purchase, so I was able to get exactly what I was looking for today.”
“Bit of a smell from all the geese feces but still very scenic and nice to fish at. Great costumer service at the front office, REMINDER THAT YOU NEED A VA FISHING LICENSE AND A UOSA FISHING PERMIT. You can get one at the front office. Thanks for the water lol!”
“This place has nonstop gems at reasonable prices for thrift lovers like me. Look out for the color of the week on items for 50% off. Briana M. is AMAZINGGG! ?”
“The U4 Cubs program has been excellent for my 3-year-old! Coach Aiden does a remarkable job of keeping preschoolers engaged while learning basic soccer (and listening!) skills. I am grateful that we found Vienna Youth Soccer!”
“This place is awesome. The staff at dropoff are extremely friendly and will meet you outside regardless of weather. It has an easy pull up area which is covered and they help you unload.
When my son recently left his expensive jacket in one of the bags I dropped off, the staff went through a lot of bins within the hour and found it, and returned it to me. I was shocked. It’s easier for them to just say that it was donated, etc but they were so kind about it. The manager, Genai (sp?) was lovely as well and offered to keep it in her office so I could take my time coming back to get it. What a wonderful crew!”
“I have hired workers several times. They have worked hard and well. I highly recommend the Centery and the great work they do. We are lucky to have such a resource in our community. Please support them.”
“The administrative lady seemed to be very, very friendly and helpful. I dont know why the previous negative reviews because she was very velcoming and nice to us. Thank you!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Cloverleaf Equine Center. Their service, support, understanding, and patience are truly the best. Every staff member is kind, caring, and dedicated to helping the children and families they serve.
My son is autistic, and he absolutely loves going there. He is always excited for his sessions and has built a great connection with his therapist. The staff take the time to understand his needs and make him feel comfortable, supported, and successful.
We have seen so much positivity through this program, and I am incredibly grateful for everything they do. Thank you to the entire team for your compassion, professionalism, and commitment. You are making a real difference in our lives!
❤ Highly recommended! ❤”
