“Dear PoPville,
On Thursday, February 23rd at 5:59-6:00pm (It was the unusually warm 80 degree February day) I was biking north on 14th St NW in the bike lane between S and T streets NW (right in front of Gypsy Kitchen) when I approached a rideshare driver who was idling illegally in the bike lane, blocking it entirely and forcing me over between the bike lane and parked vehicles. A passenger of that ride share then ‘doored’ me (flung his door open without looking and hit me) as I was going by.
I sustained multiple injuries and my bicycle was totaled. I briefly spoke with the passenger who assured me he would “take care of any damages,” but I was in an immense amount of pain from the impact, which crushed my hand, so I stepped into Bar Pilar, which was ~20 feet away, to grab ice while we exchanged information.
To my utter shock, in the 30 seconds that it took me to grab ice, both the rideshare car and passengers had fled the scene (before I was able to obtain their information). I have been pleading with local businesses to obtain security footage, which could help me identify the driver via license plate, but in the meantime, am hoping that if the passengers see this, they might be willing to connect and share the driver’s information so Uber can cover my medical bills and bicycle damages. I have a witness who approached me after the incident, however he didn’t get the driver’s license plate either.”

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!
