Thanks to all who wrote in about the notorious Trump Truck/unity bridge/trump-mobile:
“The “Trump Truck” is driving around downtown despite being surrounded by anti-Trump protestors. It was briefly stopped at 10th and E sometime after 3pm when three or four people lay down in front of it. There was some yelling back and forth before the police got the people laying down to stand up and the truck could move on.
While we were all seeing what would happen, a woman silently stood in front of the truck holding a poster saying “Women’s Rights Are Human Rights” while holding her child’s hand. It was an amazing moment (photo above.)”
and
“Their dream to create “unity, and help unite our country together” didn’t seem to be doing so well Saturday at 14th and F Street. For some reason, the hundreds of thousands of people marching against Trump’s hate and ignorance didn’t take kindly to the sight of the Unity Bridge. Credit the DC police with preventing the Bridge from being washed away.”
and
“I live between 9th and 10th on E, and this photo and video I took from my balcony around 3:15. The Trump mobile trying to turn, being blocked by March attendees. No comment on his intentions for coming downtown today, but the video shows he was saying “we all need peace, we all need to be heard” etc. I’m sad for all of us at this point.”

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!
