Richmond, VA Area Local Chapter

PocketChangePension · Post by **PocketChangePension** » Sun Apr 13, 2014 3:50 am

I am now the Coordinator for the Richmond, VA Local Chapter. You can send me a PM or email RichmondBogleheads@gmail.com. I'm open to any and all suggestions for topics to discuss and places to meet. I also welcome members from other chapters who might be in the area.

Well, with me that would make two.

Seriously, I've been out of pocket for a while but have started rechecking this board. I hadn't heard about any Richmond area meetings. Maybe we can drum up some interest.

PocketChangePension · Post by **PocketChangePension** » Mon Jun 09, 2014 5:09 am

Sorry I never saw your reply, but I'd be interested. There has to be more than just the 2 of us that are local to Richmond.

Make that 3 here. I'm a west ender

fortyofforty · Post by **fortyofforty** » Mon Jun 09, 2014 5:56 am

Now we're rolling. We can hold a meeting in a phone booth. Wait, nobody knows what phone booths are. Never mind.

I'm another Richmond local (Hanover County) who has some interest.......

Hello Everyone:

I'm pleased to announce that the Richmond VA Local Chapter has a new coordinator. Here's the new contact information:

Kevin
RichmondBogleheads@gmail.com

Thanks for stepping up and agreeing to head up the Richmond Local Chapter, Kevin. Good luck to you and all the Richmond-area Bogleheads.

fortyofforty · Post by **fortyofforty** » Sat Jul 18, 2015 8:58 am

Any fellow Richmond Bogleheads besides me heading to the national conference?

I work in Richmond at the University but live closer to Fredericksburg. Just getting into personal finance/investing after years of working in athletics and living on rice and beans

Silver Bullet · Post by **Silver Bullet** » Mon Jul 23, 2018 10:29 pm

Is there any life to the Richmond VA Chapter? I've only been on the forum for about a year, but definitely interested in meeting like minded investors.
Maybe get a group together while sampling some of our local micro-brews?

PocketChangePension · Post by **PocketChangePension** » Tue Jul 24, 2018 5:47 am

I moved out of state, so someone else needs to take this over. There were only a couple people in the area and we were never able to meet up.

Silver Bullet · Post by **Silver Bullet** » Tue Jul 24, 2018 2:58 pm

Thanks PCP. Hopefully others will chime in. Anyone know if:
Kevin (RichmondBogleheads@gmail.com) is still our local coordinator?

That's me, so unfortunately no. There is nobody at the moment.

Long time lurker, first time poster so I could respond.

Out in Goochland in Manakin-Sabot. Feel free to PM me if you plan to set up a meeting.

Looks like enough to get a booth at O'Charley's now

I’m in your neck of the woods as well. Let’s get a group and hit Sunset!

I'd join y'all but moving out of town on Friday.

buxton.bogle · Post by **buxton.bogle** » Wed Jul 25, 2018 8:25 pm

I am over near Midlothian. Let me know if there is a meet up. Would be interested in attending and seeing what it is all about.

fortyofforty · Post by **fortyofforty** » Wed Jul 25, 2018 8:52 pm

There is life once again. This is a good sign.

Vbahole · Post by **Vbahole** » Sun Dec 23, 2018 11:00 pm

Another one here in carytown. Let me know if there is any chapter activity!

Silver Bullet · Post by **Silver Bullet** » Mon Dec 24, 2018 8:52 am

I’m in Short Pump. Happy to help coordinating a group get together. Let’s see if others chime in.

pobox2001 · Post by **pobox2001** » Mon Dec 24, 2018 8:54 am

Western Hanover (near Short Pump) here.

buxton.bogle · Post by **buxton.bogle** » Mon Dec 24, 2018 9:26 am

Still in Midlothian. Would be interested in attending if something gets off the ground in the RVA area.

Pete E Malt · Post by **Pete E Malt** » Thu Jan 03, 2019 10:16 am

My first post is also a chime in to join a local BH group. I live in Midlo but would be all over a meetup at one of the new pubs in Scott's Addition.

mdshumaker · Post by **mdshumaker** » Thu Jan 03, 2019 6:08 pm

I would be interested too. In Midlothian. Love the craft brewery idea.

Mattzees · Post by **Mattzees** » Tue May 14, 2019 12:22 pm

If this group is active, I would go to meetings!

TurtleTurtle14 · Post by **TurtleTurtle14** » Tue May 14, 2019 1:25 pm

Bon air. Definitely interested. I'm also an avid listener of the choosefi podcast which is put on by a guy in short pump and a guy in bon air. I know they have a Richmond local group. Maybe we could set something up with both as both groups preach a very similar message.

Thoughts?

mdshumaker · Post by **mdshumaker** » Tue May 14, 2019 1:57 pm

I would be interested.

Post by **Mel Lindauer** » Tue May 14, 2019 2:27 pm

Lots of interest here.

If someone wants to step up and agree to be the Local Coordinator, PM me with an email you'd like to use for this purpose and we'll get you back up and running again.

buxton.bogle · Post by **buxton.bogle** » Tue May 14, 2019 3:35 pm

I got tied up so Jeff beat me to it. It's official; Jeff is the new Local Chapter Coordinator for the Richmond VA Chapter. I'll be adding his contact information to the Local Chapters Map so others can find and contact you

Thanks to Jeff for stepping up. My very best to him and all the Richmond-area Bogleheads.

Apologies for the late change, but I’ve had an emergency board meeting that has come up on June 4th and we’ll need to reschedule. New date is June 25th. Please let me know if you can attend. Thank you

mdshumaker · Post by **mdshumaker** » Mon Jun 03, 2019 2:23 pm

Unfortunately June 25th doesn't work for me. But will be interested in keeping up to date with what was discussed and the next planned meeting.

I can accommodate either date at this time. Thanks.

THY4373 · Post by **THY4373** » Mon Jun 03, 2019 4:22 pm

Just noticed this thread. I'd be interested in future meetings but on 6/25 I'll be in Europe with my son so won't be able to attend that one.

nomas · Post by **nomas** » Mon Jun 03, 2019 5:05 pm

My wife and I should be able to make the June 25 meeting. However, we are doing some home renovations.
If the renovations take much longer than expected then we may not be able to attend.

Loon11 · Post by **Loon11** » Mon Jun 03, 2019 8:19 pm

Hi - just seeing this as well, live in Bon Air. May be able to meet - but sounds like the 25th may not work for a lot of folks. Will PM and get on board for updates. Great!

curryitr · Post by **curryitr** » Tue Jun 04, 2019 8:19 am

Just getting on and seeing this. So is it definitely off for tonight or are a few people still planning on showing up?

TurtleTurtle14 · Post by **TurtleTurtle14** » Tue Jun 04, 2019 11:22 am

I live in Bon Air and should be able to make the June 25 meeting. Glad I checked this thread before heading out tonight. thanks for coordinating everything
