From The Public Option:

“As winter sets in, The Public Option is taking a pause to reflect on our journey over the past eight years. We’re exploring potential directions for the future, including the possibility of evolving into a community-based cooperative or a non-profit arts venture.

We’re open this weekend: Friday, Saturday, Sunday (12/15 – 12/17) with punk bands playing Friday & Sunday, and Saturday we’re featuring a southern rock band.”

“As winter sets in, The Public Option is taking a pause to reflect on our journey over the past eight years. We’re exploring potential directions for the future, including the possibility of evolving into a community-based cooperative or a non-profit arts venture.

This decision-making process will take time, filled with reflection and valuable input from trusted friends like you. Although we can’t pinpoint the duration, we’re optimistic about the prospect of reopening in the future, welcoming you back to The Public Option.

The last eight years have been nothing short of a miracle, thanks to the relationships we’ve forged and the experiences we’ve shared. We’re immensely grateful for your support, and we look forward to staying connected during this pause. As our plans solidify, we’ll update our website and share on social media.

Cathy, Bill, Aaron and the cats”

STAY TUNED.

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!
