Bill Crandall over from Petworth News has some great photos of the Park Place Topping Out Ceremony. Crandall say “Topping out” means the concrete superstructure of a building is finished.
Crandall also reports that Councilmember Graham has confirmed that a CVS will be going in across the street in the empty lot where they used to have the old Farmers Market. This confirms my Scandalous Gossip post back in April. Sweet, my rumor to truth ratio has increased to 94% accurate. Eh, I can’t pretend to be excited by a CVS, again certainly better than a vacant lot but at the end of the day it’s a CVS.

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!
