I got this flyer via email and I’m just gonna post it as is:
“ATTENTION!!
HUGE RATS HAVE BEEN SIGHTED WITHIN OUR PETWORTH NEIGHBORHOOD. UNFORTUNATELY, OUR FERAL CAT POPULATION HAS ALSO BEEN QUICKLY AND MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARING!
AS NEW EATERIES, RESTAURANTS AND GROCERY MARKETS OPEN, THIS RAT INFESTATION PROBLEM IS RAPIDLY BECOMING A VERY SERIOUS PUBLIC HEALTH CONCERN. OUR PREVIOUS FERAL CAT POPULATION KEPT THESE VERY DANGEROUS AND FILTHY RODENTS AT BAY.
CATS ARE THE NATURAL PREDATOR OF RATS AND MICE
THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE TO KILL RATS OR MICE. THEIR PHEROMONES KEEP MOST OF THEM AT BAY. SADLY, THE RATS ARE NOW FREE TO OVER POPULATE AND TO INVADE OUR HOMES! WHAT’S JUST AS BAD AS YOUR HOME BURNING DOWN? HAVING RATS INFEST ITS WALLS! RESALE VALUES WILL PLUMMET.
YOU MAY HATE CATS BUT, THEY SERVE AS OUR GUARDIAN ANGELS! THEY HELP TO PREVENT RATS AND MICE FROM ENTERING OUR PROPERTIES.
• PLEASE SUPPORT THE RE-ENTRY OF FERAL CATS INTO OUR COMMUNITIES!
• PLEASE LET’S HELP CARE FOR AND PROTECT OUR COMMUNITY CATS!
• PLEASE HELP FIGHT ANY EXISTING OR UPCOMING LAWS ON THE BOOKS THAT OUTLAW FERAL CATS IN OUR DC CITY NEIGHBORHOODS!
THANK YOU!

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!
