Thanks to a reader for passing on from VIDA yesterday afternoon:

“Thank you very much for your patience today while we worked to recover from a fire overnight as quickly as possible!

Late last night, we suffered a fire in our laundry room after the club closed, close to midnight. We are very thankful that NO VIDA Team members, Fire Fighters or Building Management and Residents were injured! Everyone is safe.

We will remain closed today. [Ed. Note: Monday] Below is a bullet list of things you can expect tomorrow…

· Our Tuesday hours will be 7am-11pm. Our normal hours thereafter

· There will be no Fuel Bar service available tomorrow

· KidsZone will be closed tomorrow due to damage

· Group Fitness Studio will be closed indefinitely for repairs. I will have more information in the coming days. We hope to get this studio back as quickly as possible

· Aura Spa will be closed tomorrow

· Please plan for us not to have towel service available tomorrow. This is depending on repairs to the laundry room equipment

· The internal elevator may not be working. This also depends on repairs

· Penthouse Pool Club will operate as normal

Again, we are very grateful to all of you who wished us well and sent messages hoping that no one was injured! We are looking forward to getting back to full speed as quickly as possible!

If the above items are an inconvenience for you, all VIDA locations will be allowing access to Yards members should you wish to visit another location.

Thank you very, very much!”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
