We had yet another extraordinary event at a terrific new venue in Reston photos  
There was plenty of successful networking with great food, the view of Lake Anne, private party facilities, wonderful service and a crowd that numbered 99 attendees (including 25 "newbies").  Tavern on the Lake provided us with a classic Mediterranean atmosphere and half price martinis!  Specific individuals who deserve special attention for their referral prowess include Andrew Polcha of Gridprocessor, who brought along 6 newbies, Carla Gregory of PropNet (5); Margaux Gutierrez of Northrop Grumman IT (3 newbies); Linda Martino of Merlin International (3) and other notables such as Pete Zawadzki of Rigpa and Lesley Noble both with 2.  I am thrilled that so many members think so highly of our organization to bring other colleagues and friends to the monthly social.  Plus don't forget about checking out the new individual data back service that Paul Laflamme and his partner Tom Gervais presented. 
You will not want to lose your data ever! BackupOnIT
