Great News! The Fabulous ART Bus 77 will soon run on Saturdays in addition to Weekdays

Beginning some time this Spring (exact date TBD) the ART 77 will add Saturday service!  ART 77 runs between Shirlington and Court House with stops in the shopping area of Clarendon.   For transit riders this is MUCH easier than taking Metrorail.

Dogma Bakery's employee mentioned on Voice of America

From Dogma's Facebook page:

Ok, this isn't to brag; but it is kind of funny...how many dog bakeries do you think get mentioned on Voice of America? Well, that would be at least one we know of...Dogma Bakery in The Village at Shirlington! They quoted our employee, Kamala, for one of their pieces on pet care in the US....I might need to start listening more often!
