“Dear PoPville,
A car crash occurred on Wednesday, May 25 at 5.05 pm at the intersection of Farragut and Arkansas NW. A car was t-boned making a left onto Farragut NW, towards John Lewis Elementary School.
The car that was t-boned jumped on the sidewalk very near where I was walking with my friend, both of us with babies in strollers. My friend lunged backward and I jumped up on the lawn yanking my baby and the stroller. We fell backwards and I tried to cover him as much as I could. It was very scary. And, it appears all are well, at least physically.
My missed connection is a kind woman in a tan athletic/sweat outfit with dark hair pulled back that ignored all of the chaos and walked to me and said “That must have been very scary. I’m so sorry that happened to you.”
It was exactly what I needed to hear to collect myself to continue the walk to JLES to get my daughter. ”
If you are the kind woman, please email me at [email protected] and I’ll put you in touch with OP.
I'm glad you're okay, but this is awful and preventable. Ward 4 is full of dangerous, uncontrolled intersections that should have all-way stops or traffic lights but are being denied. Please DM me your contact info so I can add you to our follow up with DDOT. I will keep pushing.

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!
