(http://camdenblogs.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/friends.jpg) Moving somewhere new, far from friends and family, is never easy. Making the time and finding the courage to meet new people can be two obstacles difficult to overcome. Today, the internet has made keeping in touch with old friends easy through sites such as Facebook. In regards to making new friends the web even offers group interest sites such as Meetup.com or Active.com. Meetup.com offers an array of interest groups, from book/movie clubs to adventure clubs, and Active.com is geared towards those with an interest in participating in some sort of activity such as running, soccer, or swimming varying from casual to competitive levels. Another great way to meet people locally is through your apartment community! Camden loves to host resident events because it’s a great way for our residents to meet each other. We are always trying to come up with new events in order to reach out to all interests. Some new events that are being hosted in the NOVA (Northern Virginia) area are: -Running/Walk Club on the W&OD Trail -Bark in the Park (For the furry friends) -$5 Domino’s Pizza Nights -Dog Day Wednesday’s (Hot Dogs cooked fresh for you on the BBQ!) -Fun Friday’s!! (Varies from month to month, but one example is ‘Cocktails & Costumes’ in celebration of Halloween) -Monday Night Football -Happy Hour (Hosted either in your communities clubhouse, or a local restaurant) -Sweet Treat Tuesday’s (Cupcakes, Ice-cream Sundaes, Etc.) -AND MORE!!! If you have an idea for an event you would like to see at your community, please contact your local leasing office and we’d be happy to help accommodate your interest. Or if you are a Camden employee, and have an event that has had a lot of success, please share so we can get our residents involved too!
