1541 7th Street, NW

“Dear PoPville,

There is a PUBLIC HEARING about the new club, Play DC at 1541 7th St NW. It is located in Shaw on 7th St NW between P & Q, next door to The Passenger. The hearing will be on Wednesday, January 30 at 4:30 pm. UPDATE “now set for Wednesday, February 6 at 3:30 pm” See details below.

This club got a lot of attention because they had music and the bass blasting until 4 am in late-Dec, early-Jan. They were running an obstructive car valet blocking 7th. It’s likely that the M80 explosion on Jan. 2 was set off by someone leaving the club.

The more people we can get to attend the hearing the better. Please come!

HEARING DETAILS:

The Alcoholic Beverage Control Board was recently made aware from ANC Commissioner Alex Padro of an incident that took place in your neighborhood on or about January 1, 2019. As a result of the incident, the Board is holding a public hearing regarding the conduct of the applicant who was operating an establishment on a temporary ABC license. The hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, February 6 at 3:30 pm. The Board would welcome your attendance and any testimony you would like to share for the record. We hope your schedules permit you to attend. Please share this email with any of your neighbors who may have an interest in this matter. And don’t hesitate to call me if you have any questions.

Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration
2000 14th Street, NW, Suite 400S

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!
