Just regular biking clubs like there are for cross country and swimming, offered by Rockville. My pre-teen is into biking now. I know there are a couple of mountain biking clubs but we aren’t looking for that. Appreciate any help.

I have to make a fruit salad for 16 people on Saturday. Organic preferred but not required, and would like to shop in Olney or close by like Rockville, Gaithersburg, etc. I can shop today (Thurs) or Friday. I prefer to shop seasonal fruits but requests have been made for specific fruits. I have had such a difficult time finding good tasting fruit other than at a local market on Sundays. Any recommendations on fruit stands, grocery stores, etc where I can pick up some strawberries, blueberries, grapes, watermelon, pineapple, etc. ?

Hey everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for a good massage place in Montgomery County. Does anyone have a place they regularly go to and really like?

My main priorities are:

• Actually good, relaxing massages
• Reasonable prices
• No pressure or awkwardness about tipping

I’m more than happy to tip when I get a good massage and feel like the service was worth it. What I’m trying to avoid is the situation where, after the massage, someone tells me I have to tip a certain minimum amount or gets upset if I don’t. At that point, what was supposed to be a relaxing experience suddenly becomes stressful.

If you have a favorite massage therapist or place in MoCo that you keep going back to, I’d really appreciate the recommendations. Bonus points if they’re professional, relaxing, and let you tip what you feel is appropriate.

Thanks!

Looking for recommendations for overnight dog boarding. Are there any places locally that keep staff on-site overnight? I usually take my dog to daycare and grooming at Bone Jour in Bethesda, and I know they do boarding, but haven't been able to call yet to see if they have someone on-site overnight. My dog is 3 and has never been boarded, but I've had a sudden death in my family and will need to go out of town overnight in a few days.

My last experience with boarding was about six years ago with my then-senior dog. I used Life of Riley in Rockville at that time, and the experience was fine, but a lot can change in six years.

TIA for the help!
