“Dear PoPville,
Several months ago, my car was towed off of my private property mistakenly after a renter in my condo mistakenly called the police after not recognizing my car. The police ticketed my car and had it towed without any type of validation of the claim and did not bother to run the tags to see it was registered. After finally walking into a station with my compaint, several calls, and emails the officer hand delivered a cancellation for the ticket and admitted his error. The renter paid me for the towing fee, and the officer assured me it was all fine now and apologized.
Six months later I received a delinquency notice from a debt collector that I I still owe the city for the ticket and the total is now $600.
After reaching out, I found out that I was supposed to submit the cancellation form for the officer’s error, which he did not clearly state to me. I sent in an adjudication request with the form, but the DMV returned it saying it has been too long and I have to pay.
My car was stolen off my property that I own, the police admitted their error, but now my credit is adversely affected and I’m stuck with this bill. Does anyone have any experience on how this can now be remedied? I should not suffer for the officer’s incompetence.”

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!
