Friends,
Just thought we’d take a second to wish you a Happy St. Patrick’s day and suggest a few places to go and celebrate this evening (in no particular order):
1. The Irish Inn at Glen Echo — you know that we love this place and believe that the pub side has a unique authenticity to it. Should have some super live music there from late afternoon.
2. Harp and Fiddle — we are sure that Steve and the whole crew over there will make sure you have a super time!
3. RiRa — very convenient if you are in “new” Bethesda — don’t forget their Chip Shop/ Box specials on a day like today!
Enjoy and please don’t drink and drive!

Dear friends,
Following up from Tom’s post, just wanted to take a moment to offer our sympathy to the victims and families of the Lululemon assault and murder from a few days ago. It is a terrible tragedy and our hearts go out to the two ladies and their family and friends.
The reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the two assailants is, we believe, $135,000, and police are URGING those with any news to come forward.
It is also important that the Bethesda community reviews security in our area. But that is a topic for later.

Hi friends, just heard from our friend Lauren who noted that their charitable effort was a big success. The salon collected over 400 inches of hair- almost double the goal they originally set out to achieve! Lauren wanted to share the news and these pictures with the Bethesda Actually community:

Our friends at Bella Bethesda have a wonderful event coming up in time for Valentines Day!!
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, Bella Bethesda has its sights on sharing the love with those less fortunate and will kick off its “Cut It For a Cause” campaign on February 12. This year marks the fourth annual celebration of the week-long event to benefit Locks of Love. The salon welcomes those who are able to give at least 10 inches of hair, to visit the salon throughout the week to make their donation and in exchange receive a complimentary cut and blow dry. Those interested in helping a child in need, but aren’t yet ready to donate can still participate (and receive a free cut!) by visiting the salon to sign the pledge board and donate later this year. The salon hopes to collect 250 inches of hair so every individual who can donate makes a difference!
Please get the word out and help support this wonderful event!!
