The Lord Fairfax Silver Chapter serves USAWOA members in the National Capitol Region.
The chapter adheres to the USAWOA principles of "Professionalism, Representation, and Recognition" for the benefit of active Army, National Guard, Army Reserve, retired and former Army warrant officers and families. The designation "Silver" indicates that the Chapter has been in continuous existence since the USAWOA founding.
Regular Monthly Meetings, third Thursday of the month
at the Kingstowne Library (corner of Telegraph Road and Beulah Road) starting at 1700 hours.
Come on out and be a part of the chapter planning and camaraderie.
Occasionally meetings are held at other locations.
In addition to monthly meetings, the Chapter participates in Warrant Officer Professional Development (WOPD) Seminars, Retiree Recognition days, community service projects, the Adopt A Highway" program and hosts specific events at or, in some cases, the entire USAWOA Annual Meeting of the Members.

CHAPTER NEWS
Chapter receives a memo -
from Robin G. Johnson, the Ft
Belvoir ACS Chief thanking our chapter for supporting their 2008
Operation Sugarplum in December. Also enclosed was a thank you
card from Taylor, Travon, and Troy of Family #71. The comments
in the card were: “My family and I would like to thank you
for the joy you brought us on Christmas. God Bless you and your
family. Sincerely, Family #71”. Good deeds do get
recognized, even if it’s anonymous.
