12th Annual Brent Elementary Holiday Tree Pre-Sale Begins

From an email:

“The Brent Elementary School Parent Teacher Association will hold its 12th annual Holiday Sale from Thursday, December 1st – Sunday, December 4th and its online sale from November 8th – 29th. Proceeds are used to provide critical resources to students.

Beautiful fragrant Fraser fir trees, greenery, Hanukkah items, and more will be available for presale starting November 8th at www.brentholidaysale.org. The outdoor, on-lot sale will run from Thursday, December 1st, through Sunday, December 4th and, in addition to trees, will include wreaths, garland, poinsettias, winterberry, and Hanukkah items. All customers will also have the popular option to have their trees delivered on the day of purchase and the option for in-home setup.

Brent parents volunteer to staff every aspect of the sale. “The Holiday Sale is a highlight of the season. It brings current, past, and future Brent families together along with all of our surrounding neighbors,” said Mary Claire York, the sale’s co-chair. “We are excited to continue our holiday tradition this year and to include some of the festive elements of the sale not possible during the pandemic last year. We hope we will be everyone’s first choice when shopping for a tree.”

This year’s on-lot sale will be open at 301 N. Carolina Avenue SE on the following days and times:
Thursday, December 1st – 4pm – 7pm Friday, December 2nd – 4pm – 7pm Saturday, December 3rd – 9am – 5pm Sunday, December 4th – 9am – 5pm”

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!
