Update from Rock Creek Park NPS: “We are seeking funding for the repairs to the cascading fountain at Meridian Hill Park. Work needed to be completed before the fountain can operate includes additional rehab of deteriorated concrete & replacement of the variable frequency drive water pump.”
Carter Christensen asks:
“Serious question re: Meridian Hill/Malcolm X Park – who can we talk to, or advocate, to get these fountains back on and this park the attention and care it deserves? It’s a shame this space just sits here like this year after year to no avail – the city deserves better.”

“This is a problem going back decades. It’s been fixed and on for only a short time before it shut down again. Here’s my grandmother early 40s back when it actually functioned as a fountain regularly. (Grandparents met while both living on Euclid in one of the big apartment blds)”

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!
