In D.C there is a Music store by the name Zodiac Record Shop that belongs to a dominican married to a Salvadorean....It is located on 18th street/ Mt Pleasant...You get to see many dominicans there and I am very sure that they will be able to guide you in the right direction.Chino said:Residing in Burke, Virginia since Aug 05. Anyone knows if we have a Dominican Social Club in the Wash, DC/Alexandria, Springfield, VA area where Dominicans can meet and socialize?

DominiCubana said:If you hear of one, please let me know. There are a lot of Dominicanos en Montgomery County Maryland especially in the Germantown/Gaithersburg area were I live. I have been looking for a social type club for a while. Perhaps I should stop looking and create one! If there are any 30+ (age) Dominicanos living in the Silver Spring/Rockville/Germantown/Gaithersburg area.....make your presence known. It gets pretty boring around here, and DC is sometimes a long ride away.
Gracias

Don Juan said:Hola Dominicubana! I too been seeking a club-type place to sit with my compadres but haven't found any as yet.
There's a group at Manna's restaurant in Tacoma Park that gathers, especially on weekend nights, but it's too rambunctious for my taste. All they do is guzzle presidentes and argue politics.....loudly !
The moment you or anyone knows of a decent, sedated & half-civilized DR place, please let us know. I'll come running. Or, as you said, Domini; we may have to open up our own!
BTW: I live in Silver Spring & there ain't nothing here but Salvadorean clubs.
Some of them play a little merengue/bachata but mostly norte?as, ugh!
It's been a while but I used to watch a league over near Prince Goerges plaza. I also went to a game off of rt 1 near the Univ. of Maryland. My ex- novio has two uncles that play in the league. I'll see what I can find out for you.aegap said:Does anyone have any contact info for the Dominican softball league in the metropolitan suburb of Maryland?
Has anyone ever played in it or gone to any of the get together?
Well, I've never seen one here, but that doesn't mean that we can't have one. I believe the parade in NY is in August.DCKenny said:Will there ever be a Dominican Parade in the DC area?
DominiCubana said::classic: I know what you mean. Manna used to be a weekly trip for me, but it got a bit rough so I stopped going especially on the weekends. It's a little safer during the week days when everyone is working or still sleeping off the "Presidente":classic:. That reminds me...I'm long over due for some chicharron de pollo! Do you ever go to Divino Lounge in Bethesda? Every Friday night is Latino night. It was really nice, but I haven't been since the summer. They play a little bit of everything.
Don Juan said:No que va! never even heard of the Divino Lounge but I'll look it up. I may want to visit. What kind of a crowd is it?.... Don't care for under 30 and extremely loud.
You ever been to "La Yuca" in downtown DC? It's run by a couple of Cubans & the music's pretty good. On Thursdays, I think, they have "cluts night" for people that can't dance Latin very well. Went there 4-5 times this past summer....on Thursdays.
DCKenny said:Do you have to dress up there also does this place lets out at 2:00 am during the weekends?
DCKenny said:I'm really not a Adams Moran type of guy because it's in my neighborhood and it gets old so I like to try something different! Oh have been to the Luck Bar during moday I've been there and it's too crowded for me?
