“So this is a thing that’s happening on the Glover Park listserv…”

Thanks to a reader for passing on: “So this is a thing that’s happening on the Glover Park listserv…”

Folks: I do not believe the massage parlor in Glover Park is a brothel, nor do I believe it is involved with child sex trafficking or anything of the kind. Let’s back down from these unsubstantiated charges, please. To the best of my knowledge, it is a legitimate massage business, which has had one unfortunate incident that was immediately reported by the manager to MPD.

Response:

All due respect, there is no way only one client gets a hand-job at a massage parlor. For you to chalk this up to “one unfortunate incident” is deeply concerning.

Furthermore, when I simply stop on the street and chat with random men standing out front at midnight on a Friday night and ask them what they know about the massage parlor and they VERY FIRST thing they said was they heard “they give good head,” there is a problem.

I find it difficult to understand why Glover Park residents would make a fuss over JPs [Stripclub] and turn a blind eye to reports of men getting “hand jobs” and “head” right next door a place, where during the day time, there are toddlers and young children running around all over the nail salon.

How does that make any sense?

Ed. Note: MPD also responded “Metropolitan Police Department’s Human Trafficking Unit conducted an investigation into this location and it looks like they are conducting a legitimate business. We will continue to monitor and if you see anything that is out of the ordinary feel free to contact me directly.”

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!
