@PoPville about a dozen fire trucks just raced past here headed towards the protest on GA Avenue. Can smell smoke. Lots of flashes and bangs too. I’m near Ft Stevens.

@PoPville We just heard multiple loud bangs go off near Mt. Vernon Square. Anyone know if these were firecrackers or something else?

@PoPville if anyone’s car was parked on 5th St between Kennedy and Jefferson .. they might want to check on it. Car just came careening southbound on 5th and plowed into this row of cars. There’s a pretty beat up black BMW & black Toyota sedan

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!
