“Dear PoP,
One of WMATA’s proposals for balancing the budget is to close the 10th and U Street entrance to the green line on weekends. This and other proposals on the link below are up for public comment until Wednesday, January 27th. Would you please post this on your website, in case your readers would like to object to (or support) the metro entrance closure?”

While we discussed service cuts vs. a 10 cents fare increase, how do folks feel about closing metro entrances?

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!
