“Dear PoPville,

Saturday night my roommate and I went dancing to one of our old haunts, the Wonderland Ballroom on 11th St. While we were dancing, we hung my purse, which contained both our wallets and cell phones on a hook behind us. Keeping the purse in sight, we danced for about 2 hours! There were only a couple of times that someone was standing between me and my bag, and I kept what I thought was a close eye on the bag. When we left, we discovered that my roommate’s brand new iPhone was gone from my bag. When we checked our wallets, all the cash was gone, but cards were still there. We left a note with the Wonderland staff. Has anyone else had an experience like this? Is it even worth filing a police report? I hope others can learn from our mistakes. Next time we will make sure to keep the bag on us at all times.”

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!
