The Greene Turtle Closing at Capital One Arena April 9th, Shell Raiser Lounge Coming for Wiz/Caps Postseason


601 F Street, NW

Thanks to Bob for sending from NBC Sports:

“While The Greene Turtle will close April 9, the Shell Raiser Lounge will re-open in its place for all Wizards and Capitals postseason games.”

The Washington Business Journal asks: “Monumental buys out Greene Turtle’s lease. Could sports betting be far behind?”

So many emotions. I waver from indifference to not giving a tinker’s damn. Let’s flashback to 2009 when we judged the Greene Turtle when there were far fewer options in the neighborhood. A sampling:

“This place is horrible. I work a couple blocks away and we have all eliminated it as a lunch/happy hour option. The food is average sports bar food but the service is dreadful; very slow and I have yet to actually get the food that I ordered.”

“service is terrible. food is as expected.”

“meh…chicken sliders were dry”

“Wow worse food than RFD is not good at all.”

“Dreadful. It’s bottom of the barrel bar food.”

Updates when we learn the long term plans for the space.

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!
