Our 3D Officers had been patrolling close by, and were able to arrive on scene quickly and make an apprehension of a Suspect in this case. Although no one was injured by gunfire, 1-Adult Male has been placed under arrest for “Unlawful Discharge of a Firearm” & “Carrying a Pistol without a License” and 1-Illegal Firearm has been recovered as Evidence. Thank you for your patience as our response to this area undoubtedly disrupted local traffic. MPD remains vigilant and continues to seize illegal firearms off our streets every chance we can.

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!
