Thanks to R. for passing on: “Our hearts are with Powell student Alani Flores and her family after a devastating car accident last week. Her father and sister were also injured but have been released from the hospital. Here is a link to a fund to support the family if you would like to contribute. Thank you for sharing.
On July 7 , 2023 the Flores family had a day off so they decided to take the trip from Washington DC to Virginia to enjoy beautiful Lake Anna. The children enjoyed a day and were headed home. Unfortunately a tragic accident happened that has displaced this family. Three out of the five family members were hurt in the automobile accident. Father Carlos and daughter Kimberly have been released from the hospital, Kimberly will require therapy for her injuries. However Alani 7 years old sustained the worst injuries. She has suffered a brain injury and has been on a ventilator since the accident and had craniotomy surgery on 7/9/23. We are asking to assist with medical bills and the household bills as both of the parents are at their daughters bedside and unable to work. If you are unable to give please share and say a prayer for their little girl.”

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!
