I am new to the group and am in the Northern VA area and have recently started playing with the Amiga again.
While I have sold my machines many years ago I have been playing with emulation as of late.
Was wondering if anyone in the DC area still plays around with them and a possible meet up and chat about them and in general.
Thank you for the join of the group.

Welcome Ryan! How did you find out about our group?
I know that there are others on this list that are into Amigas and hope that they chime in. I would highly recommend connecting with others on Amiga Bill's Discord Channel: https://discord.gg/WZ8pNexm <https://discord.gg/WZ8pNexm>. He also has YouTube videos on Amiga. Not sure if you do IRC, but there are some active channels there. Also lemonamiga.com <http://lemonamiga.com/> is a good source.
I hope that this helps!
Jeff
Hello Jeff, I am going to guess some dumb luck and research. With my latest interest in Amiga I started to look around what is here in the DC Metro area. I found a DMV ( DC Maryland Virginia Metro) Vintage Computer Meetup group. Once I joined that I saw a reference to VCF East 2021 and wondered what that was? Once I did that research I found the VCF website which has a link to join our mailing list and then ended up here. Yea I know long way to get there but it is findable if determined. I have joined Amiga Bill’s Discord channel and will have to look at that closer along with his YouTube channel over the next few days. I have not used IRC in many of years but I am seeing some groups (not just here, some development ones as well) using it so that is on my list re-learn about and see what has changed over the years. Always up for suggestions of servers and just general thoughts. I have run across lemonamiga and will continue to look there. I appreciate all the information. Right now its a lot coming in and will take a bit to process but well worth it! Thank you -Ryan
