    Serve Our Willing Warriors / Warrior Retreat at Bull Run

    (1 review)

    The Bull Run Warrior Retreat is a project of a local 501(c)(3) non-profit group called "Serve Our…read moreWilling Warriors." The vision for the Bull Run Warrior Retreat is to provide a place for wounded warriors to spend a weekend or a couple of weeks with their families in a healing, therapeutic environment. http://www.willingwarriors.org/aboutbullrunwarriorretreat The Retreat currently consists of a 11,000 square foot home situated on 44 acres in the historic and picturesque Virginia countryside in Prince William County. Warriors and their families will be invited to spend time at the retreat. The retreat property sits at the edge of the beautiful Bull Run Mountain Conservancy and Virginia's renown Hunt Country. Work is currently underway to complete renovations on the first house. Plans include expanding the capacity to serve wounded warriors by adding a couple of more houses. You can see the planned stages of the project here: http://www.willingwarriors.org/plans The Bull Run Warrior Retreat is in need of support to continue moving forward. It's an amazing project. I toured the site today. I am supporting their efforts and am actively working to educate others about the retreat and garner support. If you can make a donation to support The Bull Run Warrior Retreat, please visit: https://secure.etransfer.com/eComm/donation/donation1.cfm?d2org=SOWW&d2tool=donate

    From the owner: Our organization is a retreat for wounded, ill and injured service members and disabled veterans.read more

    Pros: This place is great for members. Cheapest Beer and Liquor around (its BYO Liquor) and…read morethe bartenders only charge for the mixers. They also offer Gambling by way of slot machines and tip jars. This place practically runs on the gambling. Entertaining the first time... after that its pretty boring. Jackpot games do payout up to Thousands... I'm wary of club board members who do the books and get involved in the gambling with inside info. So if you don't mind playing alongside insiders... then go for it. Food: The standard menu items are on par with most bars. The only exception is when senile members who join leadership add things like "bologna and or peanut butter sandwiches" to the menu. Apparently that's what senile old folks apparently do at these clubs. So if you can sort past menu items that were dreamt up by Dementia or Alzheimer's.. everything else is standard fare.. Since this is a private club.. they really do not care about profit so the portions are usually very generous. Depending on the cook of the day that they haven't thrown out yet will determine what home dishes are served which are either really good or its dog food.. so the Meatloaf might be good.. or might be something to immediately flush down the toilet .. skip the digestion process. you be the judge. There is no standards here other than bottled beer is hard to mess up.. No quality control.. its run by a "Senior Citizen Mafia" of sorts. Cons: This club treats employees like house slaves. It is not uncommon to witness members especially those in "elected positions" to admonish and berate the employees for not "hopping to" and promptly catering to the so called elected Royalty ( board members ) Just look for the folks in suits or purple shirts and you will see what I mean... The "Royal Purples" as I call them can also be seen stumbling around drunk at most of their big functions. Maybe they are leading by example.. so for drunks.. this is the place! The Elks organization has a long history of bigotry and segregation (just look up the history for yourself) Their walls are festooned with nothing but crusty white dudes with phony makeshift royalty style jewelry around their necks.. Hypocrisy abounds here: They claim to believe in a higher power yet the way some of their elected leaders talk about and treat each other would make no one want to be a believer... So .. if 1950s mentality and Mafia style treatment of members and employees sounds appealing.. Become a member!.. If you visit more than 3 times one of the Royal Purples will likely badger you to become a member for $40. In my case they took my $40 never to be seen again.. It's been 6 months or more and I've still never been offered a membership even though I paid after being badgered for it.. I've heard of other people getting their membership since... Apparently someone in the Royal Purple Senior Citizen mafia does not care for me.. so I'm still waiting for my seat at the family table so I too can look down on the help, dress in purple, and prance around like a king of nothing that these people are. There are lots of salt of the earth veterans and members here that are wonderful to sit and talk with.. unfortunately a few turds in the punch bowel ruin what otherwise could be a good organization. They do just enough fundraising and charity to justify their existence.. other than that.. nothing special here other than cheap booze and a busybody in-fighting atmosphere.

    My boyfriend and I had a great time--especially since we were part of the small group of Black…read morepeople there, which made the experience feel unique. The drinks were affordable and strong, which was a definite plus. However, my main issue with The Lodge is the seating situation near the stage. If you're sitting in front, be prepared for people to stand directly in front of you during the drag show. I would've preferred if the drag queens, owner, or even security had stepped in to ask them to move. It was frustrating to have 6-foot-tall, 300-pound women completely block our view--especially after paying $18 per ticket. Also, watch out for this one wild white lady in a black shirt and floral shorts who acts invisible and blocks multiple people. If you ask her politely to move, she'll argue with you and even try to escalate things by telling you to "step outside" like she's about that life. Overall, for our first drag show, we had fun--but if you're going to enjoy the performance, be ready to be annoyed because no one there is enforcing basic courtesy or crowd control. Yes this is coming from the gorgeous black queen with the pink/purple hair

Looking for great house music, cheap drinks, and a small town vibe that still has a piece of metropolitan life? Go to the Lodge. The drag queens are fab and super sweet and all about the jello shots lol. My wife and I went and had a great time though it was sleepier than we remembered it. Fair warning it is located in an area that's very dark at night so be on high alert. If coming from Hagerstown it will be on your left, if Frederick your right.
