“There are food trucks that have been blocking the crosswalks and eliminating visibility for EVERYONE for more than a year”


14th St and Jefferson Drive, NW

“Dear PoPville,

I am sending this hoping that someone/anyone can do something at the corner of 14th St and Jefferson Dr. NW. There are food trucks that have been blocking the crosswalks and eliminating visibility for EVERYONE for more than a year and our authorities have given up and decided to let the trucks run wild. Not sure if it was the NPS or DC gov that installed horrible fences last year hoping the trucks would no longer park there because of the visibility problems. The trucks do not care and just moved and now block the sidewalks eliminating all visibility.

It is horrible to go by there almost every day on my bike and cringe when peds get a walk signal and cars get the green light and they cannot see the cars running the red. So two things here – the trucks blocking crosswalks and drivers running reds all the time.

Also – WHEN ARE FOOD TRUCKS GOING TO BE ELECTRIC? It is painful to hear all the noise and smell all the fumes in our National Mall – just saying.”

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!
