Your Afternoon Animal Fix – AdoPtville

If you have any animal/pet photos you’d like to share for the regular fix please send an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail(dot)com with ‘Animal Fix’ in the title and say the name of your pet and your neighborhood. AdoPtville is run by two volunteers who compile these pets weekly from local shelters.

Merhaba! We are pleased to introduce you to world-traveler, Ankara! Ankara used to live on the streets of Istanbul before she was scooped up by a dedicated local rescuer.  After reading a few guide books and studying English, she decided to get a passport, pack her bags, and catch a flight to America!  

While it took Ankara a few days to get over jet-lag and culture shock, she is now happy as a clam and looking for her forever home.  She is super sweet, ultra cuddly, incredibly goofy, and has an adorable little meow that sounds like a chirping bird.  She loooooooves to snuggle, goes bonkers for catnip, and is full of adventure and curiosity.

Ankara will happily entertain herself with toy mice and feathers, but she absolutely adores humans and will take just about any opportunity she can to cuddle up close and purr gently while you stroke her tummy.  She is a total goofball and will make you laugh a dozen times a day as she explores her surroundings and makes herself at home.  To learn more about Ankara, email [email protected]

Emma Faith is a tenacious little terrier mix with a LOT of personality!  Her foster mom says she’s a love bug who likes to be in the middle of all the action in her foster home.  She was rescued in July 2018 along with 80+ other dogs and cats from a hoarding situation in Mississippi.  Despite that, she’s confident, curious, and affectionate.  She’s recovering from hair loss due to a flea allergy she suffered from in her previous home, but her fur has already started growing back, and we expect she’ll have a full coat by Halloween! To learn more about Miss Emma Faith, please email [email protected]

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!
