Why part are you in?
I'm moving to Richmond. And I know of a few others in Richmond too.
hales and i live in virginia beach!
i'm from the richmond area and currently live up in blacksburg
im in danville but i sometimes stay in richmond at my aunts to do seashell art
My mom works in Danville! :)you're not too far from me
Omg cooool! We should swim together sometime!
I'm in Virginia!!!
Also guys, make sure you put your little tack thing on the Member Map! It really helps us all out :)
i had no idea about the member map till you said something hales. thanks for pointing that out! also i feel like for those of us in the richmond area that it would be great to do a meet up one weekend. it would be awesome to actually get to meet you guys. i just feel back that i'm limited in where i can go right now due to being in college with crazy semester currently
I'm in school in Harrisonburg but live in Charlottesville! Richmond is just a hop, skip, and jump from me! I'm a lonely mermaid here at James Madison University and I would totally be up to driving to Richmond to swim
Guys, I didn't even realize that we have JMU, UVA, and Virginia Tech represented in here! (DrkAngel90, I assume you're Tech)
We should totally have a Richmond or Charlottesville meet-up when it gets warmer!
yup! currently in the middle of my third year here at Tech. and a meet up in either place would be awesome!!
I'm from Charlottesville and I can tell you that there are a lot of places to swim in the area! But if Richmond is easier for everyone I'm totally cool with that. I am so lonely here at JMU so a meet up would be so awesome!! Who here goes to UVA??? I'm in Charlottesville a lot!
I'm in the Madison area just about 20 minutes from C'Ville. :D
Hales knows this but I'm moving a little more south of Richmond and our new house has a pool :) I'd love to host a meet up <3
The area I have had my last shoots is Pony Pasture it's just outside of Richmond on the James River.

Also for the more nerdy of us I will attending the anime convention Nekocon.

I was thinking about the james for a meet up place. It's beautiful there!
Also is anyone here attending NC merfest in January?
I'm UVA! And the James River sound perfect. Or Hyli's house! I'm perfectly happy with either :)
And I was thinking about going to MerFest, but I was just accepted to study abroad in Mexico for Christmas Break!!!! :yay:
I'm pretty sure Hyli is going though!
I want to go but sadly I just quit my job and do not know about future events whiles it's not far for me to travel I don't know if I'll have the money for room and board.Quote:

And yes of course my house is always an option come summer time =] As for merfest I am attending and will be bringing the tank! woo!
Sorry to hear that :( Hope things get betterQuote:

I'm going to Nekocon too! I have a table in the Artist Alley! I'll probably be sewing sequins onto my tail since it's my 1 Year Mermaid-versary!
I am currently raising funds to go to the NC Merfest, I'm on the wrong end of the state and in VA but I can take the Megabus down to at least Charlotte NC. Trying to figure out how to convince a friend to go. I may make her a tail over Christmas in her favorite colors.
I'm debating to bring my tail or not for a least a couple of photos but I'm sure to have fun none the less.Quote:

From my trip to Nekocon this weekend. I didn't tail up but if we could get a group together next year maybe that would cool. Don't worry if your not a anime fan their is a large number of fantasy, steampunk, cartoon and sci-fi stuff for everybody as well.

Hi, I'm new to this, but I'm in the Portsmouth, VA area. I'm hoping to make a tail and have some basic gear by the summer.
As stated in the previous posts there is sparks of a swim/photoshoot for spring however I haven't seen any recent posts.Quote:

VA mers! For next years potential shoot would any of you be interested in helping me for certain photos for Merman/Mermaid Minerals?
Also found the VA Cosplayer's Club

Is anyone here going to NC merfest? I need a roommate!!
If it was just having to pay gas I could 100% do it but can't afford hotel and food for the weekend. XP The potential meet up will be my Merfest.Quote:
