“9th Annual Drive-In at Union Market is back”

From Union Market:

“Let’s roll down the windows, feel that summer breeze and turn up the radio because the 9th Annual Drive-In at Union Market is back. A DC “must-do,” the series of six movies will launch the first Friday of every month beginning May 7 through October 1. We are skipping the dramas this year in favor of action, comedy and cult classics.

While enjoying films under the stars, munch and sip on dozens of local, regional and international foods: Egyptian favorites by Fava Pot, night market noodles from Som Tam, ice cream locally churned by The Creamery, tasty takeout burgers from Lucky Buns and more.

For those on foot, pack your chairs and blankets and set up shop in front of Union Market for great views and picnic style entertainment.

Movie audio will be transmitted through an FM transmitter on the radio. As always, all movies are shown with open captioning.

Each movie showing costs $20 per car. “Sold Out” means that all 125 parking spaces have been reserved.

Alcohol consumption is strictly prohibited in the Union Market parking lot.

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!
