Hippie House 236 and woodburn

Does anyone remember the Small Yellow and Brown house which was on 236 near Woodburn. It was right near where the Jewish center is today, it had a light up peace sign and the house was painted yellow with brown trim just like my underpants. Anyway, in the late 60s and into 1976 the people who lived there held smoke ins and used to deal heroin, acid, and pot. It was a true example of how the hippies infiltrated the community and disrupted it. They would plaster the phone poles with anti war flyers and advertisements for smoke ins on a weekly basis. A great time to be a teenager. If you have any pictures of this house please share, im putting together a bunch of wild stories about it and my picture for the article got damaged beyond repair. I could put an artists sketch but a picture would be better. I wish that place was still there!

When I learned about hippies I thought that was what liberalism was. Peace, love, equality, tolerance, empathy, not wanting government in our lives, and live a free and prosperous life. As I got older I realized hippies are conservatives and liberalism is the complete opposite. BLM and Antifa would murder hippies today.

I remember the building. It was between Prosperity and Guinea. I never saw anyone outside of the house, but for a time it was being cared for.

I remember that as a very young kid who grew up near there. Hippie was a bad thing to call someone.

Wasn't there an antiwar commercial back then where a soldier gets shot in the jungle and cries "Oh Mama"

Gerrymanderer2 (G2, the OP original poster or spammer just above, perhaps both) posts several lies on ffu daily - many think he's a fx co gov worker who is getting paid to do it for false DNC democrat "advertising". He floods ffu with useless posts to bump down major news, demoralize americans. G2 posts fecal matter, mutilated bodies, child porn, foreign drug ads and sneaker ads, tells people to kill themselves and government should seize them and put them on psych pills in prison without a trial - decided by DNC democrats gov workers, promotes kangaroo courthouse trials, gives anti-religious rants, gives satanic ritual rants, posts black males with large dicks on white young females, portends white low birth rate and fall of USA whites, suggestive of food tampering/poisoning to solve the white problem, and anything possible to demoralize any americans on ffu - all of which are fake news he never responds to proofs it is fake. (perhaps g2 is a chinese prisoner or isis member - but definitely knowledgeable of fx co gov from the inside at times). The website operator has told him "not to post or return" (in an existing post by the sysop): not because of a political leaning but for continual illegal and gross spam along with messages that are only to demoralize if not kill others. G2 plays at financial terrorism as well; continually reporting fake and false financial data. G2 fakes emergency pleas to deaden the real response to any real one - like a devil. G2 continually spams FFU - which all users complain of: it is a real DoS attack - the attacks are not just topic bumps but designed to inject key words to kill ffu and google search results. G2 continually promotes drug use, alcoholic experimentation, and tries to convince members to meet hookers using photos from the 1990's (i doubt any that did are not arrested or dead). G2 continually posts racist posts and gay posts egging others to comment - then attacks who does - AND RECORDS IT (likely for political extortion). G2 and dems MONITOR AND RECORD* "conservatives who blast out these democrat lies and illegal abuse of telephone privilege (sometimes in a raw manner, being so jaded by the job)" (users who object to G2's actions listed so far). One ffu member discovered a south american country recording FFU databasing all posts in a non-chat database format - and when questioned - another member quickly said it was all coincidence and that this was done everywhere in the world on all sites: WHICH IS A LIE. Not all countries record the every word of what fairfaxians say on blogs. Extortion is also mentioned by G2. And the idea he's fishing for comments he can use against anyone who'd run for office is "just assume he's in that business" - and i've warned others that is what he fishes for - excuses to attack conservatives and or to extort them.

SOME POSTERS ON FFU FEEL G2 IS A JOKER: I ASSURE YOU THE ABOVE COMPLAINTS ARE GENUINELY A THREAT TO ONLOOKERS (THE UN-INTIATED), NON-DEMOCRATS, AND TO ANYONE STATING THAT LAWS SHOULD BE IMPOSED ON DEMOCRATS EQUALLY AS DEMOCRATS IMPOSE THEM ON OTHERS: MONEY

LEGAL NOTICE: DEMOCRATS HAVE `SWATTED' THE HOMES OF SOME FFU POSTS WHO REFUTE G2 AND CALL DEMS OUT ON THEFT AND LIES - AND EXPOSE THE LAWS THEY COULD BE PROSECUTED FOR BREACH OF TRUST. THAT'S A CONFIRMED WITNESSED FACT. IT IS NO JOKE WHAT G2 IS DOING. HIS CONTINUAL FISHING IS NOT IDLE - THEY ARE TRIGGERED AND ARMED. which i've warned others about since, about 2010 - that G2 is fishing for men to "erase" politically, by any means available to him


G2 has now been wimpering that anti-G2 posts are "unfair" and that users who protest G2 should be blocked, SWATTED (see above), and forced on medications (see above), and that "someone else is G2". However - do not let the vicious foreign attacker fool you into your death our out of your community: G2 has been active since exactly the beginning of 2017 "hillary has already won the election" set of lies and has only DOUBLED spam recently - yes the suicide taunting of others, false information, and all else listed above. He is not wimpering for help he has doubled the spam and vicious attacks (or they, communist/facist using federal money. I pinned him correctly when I began this warning post.

GO BACK TO HELL G2. YOU ARE EXPOSED.

DROP DEAD G2

g2 POSTS SUICIDE DEPRESSION POSTS TO DEMORALIZE PERSONS IN THE USA FOR 10 YEARS EVERY HOLIDA

NOT ONLY A FEW - SEVERAL

HE'S A PREDITOR TRYING TO CREATE DEATH IN THE USA

One dude was a geek with big glasses named Bill who was fooling with some thing called a PC back then, he offered me stock at the 7-11 and I turned him down for the 5 bucks he was asking for 10 thousand shares. I heard he later split and headed west to the Seattle area , probably a bum now with out a dime to his name like me

Yes it was on the south side of 236.

Went to elementary school across 236 (north) from the peace sign house in 1972.

School admin building used as utility shed for the Jewish community center last time I looked.

Nobody remembers the school though!
Can find no record of it anywhere.

There are threads saying the hippie place still stands but is hard to see through the trees.

Maybe it is there!! I'll go look. Yup I went to wakefiekd forest too. Do you remember the house closest to the gym, it had an ape on a swing, by 1975 the ape was gone, I think the County forced the owner to get rid of it.

The school freaked me out because there was a headstone for a teacher buried near the flagpole in front, for some reason I thought there was a decaying body waiting to pop out.

Also there was that one time some teens rigged the air raid siren to come on at 2 am one night.. that thing was great, every Wednesday at noon it was nuclear bomb drill.

Wrong school ??


I am referring to "Commonwealth Christian School",
a very small school that sat on the eastern edge
of what is now the JCC complex. Some of it has also
been redeveloped into residences and I think there
might even be a road through the part where the main
classrooms used to be.


There was no gym!


There was the admin building, which might have been
a historic building. It was an old house.
The JCC was using it for a utility building for a while.
(The interior at that point having been destroyed.)
Not sure if it still stands; haven't been over to see.

There was a building that had one or two classrooms that looked like it might have been a converted dairy barn, or possibly another farm outbuilding.

The main classrooms (all four or five of them) were in
a more modern poured concrete building on the east side.


Admin building was center, right by 236.
Main classrooms on the east, Barn classroom on
the west. Also on 236, above what I am calling
the "barn" building, west of the admin building,
was a swimming pool. Not sure if the school really
owned it. I think maybe the campus was somehow a
YMCA or something in the summer. Anyway, the pool
was only open on graduation day (maybe only for the
upper class). Pool highly visible from 236.
To the northeast of admin was the main classrooms,
aligned N/S along the property border. Small wooded
along the entire east border, then there was a road
that intersected 236. On the other side of the property,
west of the barn and pool, was a huge open field where
we would play soccer, touch football, etc. No nets or
other sports accessories - just a plain empty field.

Past that to the west was a new fire station,
a church, and I forget. Don't remember how far
those were from the field or in what order.

Someone who knows how to use the FxCo historical
imagery browser should look all this up for us,
but I tried once a long time ago and couldn't find
any of it (perhaps incompetence).


I think the school only operated for a few years.
The principal was the woman who owned it.
I went to grades 5-6 there, 1972.

The most memorable teacher was a crazy guy who may
have been German-Jewish, Math, with a huge afro!
Prof. Hrivnak. Nice teachers there.


-------------
I think some of the teachers, and definitely students,
were refugees from the oppressive Fairfax Christian School.
That was an amazing property on Popes Head Road, across from a secret Nike Fire Control (now a Fairfax maintenance facility using same old buildings, next to secluded luxury residential woods...) School property significantly reduced gor McMansion developments west. Most recently it was the infamous Islamic Saudi Academy.


Lost of FXU references there for you!
(Don't mix up the schools, please!)

The Y with the outside pool along 236. Was at the intersection of Prince William and 236 heading into Mantua on the right , There was a large old house that was two story maybe three with attic dormers and a big farmers porch there too and a old small roadside store across 236 to the east a bit by Hunt Rd that sold penny candy making it a favorite place for area children to walk to , it was gone by about 1971 .The Y was there into the 90's The Hippy House had a peace sign on the porch and that plus the sightings of long hairs was the reason it was called the Hippy House , in reality in was a Minuteman ulta right wing front ran by skinheads who wore hippy wigs outside , in the 70's a reckless driving fool went through the 236 light at speed and narrowly missed the house and telephone pole taking out their ammuntion loading shed , moonshine still and assault weapons bunker entrance on the side of the house

This thread intrigues me hah. I remember the hippie house, ill find a picture of it in a few days when I have time.

The Y has turned into the Chabad, in the 70s they had a ymca camp in the summer, one day we went on a walk into the woods which were directly across the street on the same side as the Y.

In those woods we found a covered pit with a ladder, inside was a genuine US Bong and a bag of weed, our counselor made me put it back.

Those woods were awesome, surrounded by pricker bushes and many cool trails to explore, I was sad when they built the new subdivision.

This was a long time back when Pickett shopping center only had the part with the roy rogers built, the other half hadn't been built yet.

The highlight of the Y camp was finding blackberries and raspberries growing up the fence and eating them.

The store you're talking about was called Zurkels, I explored the building just before it was demolished, it had an upstairs loft pretty surprising.

As a kid id walk to Zurkels and buy firecrackers from the guy behind the counter, great memories.

I also will reference the penguin feather post a while back. I liked penguin feather, we used to buy whippets there. It was well known that the store in Annandale had teenage prostitutes working there, if you went up to the head shop on the second floor, there was a door behind the counter to the room with a mattress in it. I recall the hell that went down when the cops caught the operation.

All this seems pretty accurate from what I recall. must have been a few years behind you. If I had only known about prostitutes at Penguin Feather.

In the end the Hippie Movement was forced to sell out to the man. People were not tolerating the phoneyism of the whole damn scene. They used to pay their way with flowers instead of money. They hated money and all it stood for. Chicago 7 all became millionaires, Rubin, Hoffman, the guy who was married to Jane Fonda, Hayden , crocked a few years back....all phonies. /
