From a press release:
“The iconic Budweiser Clydesdales will visit the nation’s capital from Wednesday, April 6 until Sunday, April 10. While in town, the hitch team and red wagon will make appearances at D.C. landmarks including Nationals Park, the Verizon Center and the bustling Southwest Waterfront. Spot the Clydesdales? Use the hashtag #BudClydesdalesDoDC for the chance to win special prizes throughout the week.
During the five-day tour, beer fans will have an opportunity to catch the Clydesdales out and about in D.C. as they celebrate Anheuser-Busch’s new partnership with Nationals Park, Nats Opening Day, National Beer Day and a Washington Capitals home game. This April marks more than 80 years since a six-horse hitch of Budweiser Clydesdales visited Washington to deliver beer to President Franklin Roosevelt at the White House in honor of the repeal of Prohibition.

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!
