“Dear PoPville,
As we begin to venture out from the pandemic and return to normal lives, my partner and I realized that we really cherished the getaways out of the city and into nature that we finally got around to doing when everything was shut down. We’ve been talking about buying a cabin somewhere in the DMV area (2-ish hours from the city?),
but are a little lost on where to start looking, and acknowledging that lots of the more rural areas are not listed online. Hoping the popville communities have some recommendations on places they’ve stayed that may be good jumping off points for us to start checking out. Ideally we’d love a place with a view where we can breathe the mountain air that’s near water (lake or river) and enjoy a cup of coffee and the quiet. Any great recommendations out there on places or companies to work with?”

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!
