D.C. About To Lose One of Its Best Mechanics


3315 8th Street, NE via google streetview

Thanks to David for passing on from the Brookland Listserv:

“Tony Lee at Lee’s Auto service at 3315 8th ST NE is closing down permanently. Their last day of service is October 31st.

My wife who worked with him as the receptionist for 10 years just recieved word from Tony Lee himself.

He plans to retire after 40 years of service and has sold the land to The Menkiti group, since they had the 1st right of refusal.

Please wish Tony Lee and his team good luck before they close and most of all a big thanks for all the years of service.”

Will ATS’ new Ivy City location be the best remaining mechanic in D.C.? Anyone use Guarani Auto Body Shop (4100 Kansas Ave, NW) in Petworth?

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!
