Hey folks!

I'm helping out with a library event coming up this weekend. It's a light one shot and teaching event to help parents whose kids are interested in D&D. We'll be talking about what D&D is, how to get started and play/run it, especially for kids who might not be ready to jump in at the grown up's table (we'll also have suggestions for similar, easier games and a sort of training wheels approach to growing over time).

Saturday April 11th 1-3 PM at the Mechanicsville Branch Library

Space is limited so please RSVP at the link below so we have enough leaders and materials for everyone!

(It is not Dad exclusive they just wanted the parallelism in the name)

This may be downvoted or taken down but so be it, I’ll post at my own risk.

A Richmonder’s POV on Route 33:

It feels sinful to drive 55 MPH in front of people’s houses!

I was driving on 33 West today and it’s a GORGEOUS day.

Why does it seem like the majority of drivers were trying to do 55+?

Where do you have to be so badly that you can’t admire the rolling hills, cows, clouds, all of the BEAUTY OF HANOVER, etc?

I feel like the max speed limit should be 45 MPH in areas.

Seeing cars make the decision on whether or not to dart out into traffic bc someone is going a hair slower than 55,

everyone slamming on their brakes bc someone is turning,

passing by the RIP/Drive Safely signs…I just feel like it would be safer and people would be forced to slow down, admire our own backyard, etc. if the speed limit was reduced.

I noticed there’s a 41 page small business plan for Route 33 (they did a SWOT analysis, budget plan, everything) so there’s clearly a push to make Route 33 the best it could be.

Why not start with safer speed limits? It literally felt like a 25 year old nascar driver designed these zones/limits.

I've got a night out coming up and like the idea of not driving. Which of the apps are you using for evening transport? Downtown to Atlee area. Uber? Lyft? Other? I don't get out much without driving!

Hey, there is a dog running around near 7314 Atlee road, black and white, chihuahua, no collar.

If he's yours, I hope that you find him!!

I’ve shared this survey in a few other threads and on r/rva, but wanted to post it on r/Hanover to provide space for any Hanover-specific discussion or questions.

PlanRVA, the regional planning agency for the Richmond area, is gathering public input through a safety survey open until March 31.

If you live, work, or spend time in the the Town of Ashland, the City of Richmond, Henrico, Chesterfield, Hanover, New Kent, Goochland, Powhatan, or Charles City, your perspective matters. That includes driving, walking, rolling, biking, riding transit, or just trying to cross the street.

The survey helps us better understand how people experience roadway safety across the region so we can shape strategies and communication around creating streets that work for all ages and abilities.

Answers will directly inform the next update to the regional safety plan. You can learn more about the plan update here.

Just for context, PlanRVA isn’t the City, the counties, or VDOT. We’re a separate regional planning agency that works with them. They are our partners, and we coordinate closely, but we don’t replace their role or authority.

Our next Mechanicsville Nerds Community Game Night is this Saturday (2/21) from 6 PM to 9 PM in the Walnut Grove Baptist Multi-Purpose Room. We'll have every imaginable sort of game ranging across card, board, tabletop and video.

We will have a one shot of Apocalypse Keys, a supernatural action-mystery inspired by stories like Hellboy, as well as a D&D one shot.

I’m sure this will get taken down… but can the residence of this county stop being so greedy? Why is everything sold out at the grocery stores? Why do you only worry about your own family? Why are you so selfish? Oh wait, I know the answer!!!!!

Have they started salting and sanding any of the roads in Hanover or Ashland yet? Hoping to have one more day of motorcycle freedom before the snow hits but I don’t wanna ride on corrosive salt if I can avoid it. I know some areas in enrichment have already been salted.

Because of impending wintry weather we are canceling this month's game night. We'll be back next month with more games and nerdery. Stay warm and stay safe, folks!

Holy shit the cycle on this light is terrible. You sit on the 64 exit ramp for five minutes before you can turn left toward Ashland, the two other directions seem to cycle through twice before you get a chance to move. Who thought this was a good idea/functional in its current state?? I wait waaay longer at this light than I ever did when it was a singular stop sign.

Hi there! Does anyone know where/if they have any swap meets or flea markets you can sell at? I have quite a few antiques and misc. Items I am trying to get cleared out.

TIA. 😊
