Hipchickindc Visits Bloomingdale Farmer’s Market Festival Featuring Les Petits Chanteurs

Haitian Singers 09-14-08 021, originally uploaded by Prince of Petworth.

The Bloomingdale Farmer’s Market is located at 1st and R Streets NW on Sundays from 10am to 2pm.

For the second year in a row, the Bloomingdale Farmer’s Market provided an awesome venue for Les Petits Chanteurs from Haiti. Usually my trips to the Sunday market are quick, but the singers and the accompanying pig roast provided good reason to hang around. This year, in addition to the choir, a group of drummers from Uruguay provided an energetic interlude.

Later in the evening, more roasted pig was consumed in honor of the belated one year anniversary celebration for the Big Bear Café, which is located adjacent to the Farmer’s Market.

Anyone else check them out?

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!
