“I am asking for your support due to the severity of the injuries because I do not have insurance”

“Dear PoPville,

please share this fundraiser to help the children and their father who were hit by a driver on their way to school?? thanks!”

The GoFundMe says:

“Thank you for taking the time to read my request for support. On October 6, 2021, I was walking my daughters to school at approximately 8:50 a.m. We were crossing the street at the intersection of Mississippi and Wheeler Road when a truck sped towards us turning onto Wheeler from Mississippi Avenue. She struck me and my daughters.

Not only where we hit by this truck but I was dragged almost 20 feet from my daughters. There was no crossing guard present. My 8 year old daughter has a broken leg and my 6 year old daughter had to have emergency plastic surgery to reconstruct her face. I am no longer able to work because my injuries have caused me not to be able to continue my job as a runner for Capital One Arena. This is a traumatic experience for all of us. I am asking for your support due to the severity of the injuries because I do not have insurance for my youngest daughter and both will also need therapy. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I am just happy that we all survived.

Any support that you can provide is greatly appreciated.”

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!
