From MPD:

“On February 17, at approximately 1:09 AM, MPD officers from the Fourth District received a 911 call for the sound of gunshots in the vicinity of Georgia Avenue and Rittenhouse Street, NW.

While canvassing the area, officers located a adult male victim in the 6200 block of Piney Branch Road, NW. The victim was found suffering from a gunshot wound to his upper leg and right ankle.

The victim reported that he was walking in the 1200 block of Rittenhouse Street, NW, when an unknown African American male wearing dark clothing exited a black SUV and pointed a dark handgun at him for no apparent reason.

The victim began running away when he was shot twice by the suspect as he fled. The suspect re-entered the SUV, which then fled eastbound on Rittenhouse Street, NW.

The victim was transported to a local area hospital for treatment of his injuries.”

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!
