“Dear PoPville,
Friday February 10, 2023 My bag was taken by woman seated next me in library. Why do I know? The woman was found in my apartment caught on camera in my building entering with my keys checking my mailbox and later entering my unit. I arrived 30 minutes later and she bagged my toiletries and gone through my closet bagging clothes.
The night of the theft I was left on steps of the library waiting on the steps of library alone for mpd no keys to apartment my neighbor allow to use her phone to cancel cards and later discovered my cash app was still was active but attempt purchases decline because of password error. Over 10 attempts were made and made numerous calls for police reports.
Security camera that should have capture the theft. Library police never showed up on the scene. Everyone left at closing and I was left with MPD.
I contacted my ward Four councilwoman office and the committee for libraries, recreations and youth Affairs ( Trayon White)
1 Extended hours needs more staff
2. Roving security who monitor
3. designated area to assist library constituents which has changed over the years: houseless, restless youth program not designed to meet their needs.
Almost a week later I have not spoken to detective from MPD.”

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!
