Dear PoP

Room For Rent, originally uploaded by jrandallc.

“I was wondering how many people are taking advantage of the inauguration to rent out spare rooms in their houses and what they are charging. I’ve seen some pretty outrageous listings on craigslist and heard the hotels are charging an arm and a leg for rooms. I’m not looking to take advantage of people but rather the time period because my basement apartment will be empty at that time.”

and from folks who wouldn’t mind taking a little advantage:

“I’m curious to know. Have any readers decided to rent out their house/condo/apt/unit/bedroom/couch for the Inauguration, what price they are asking for it, and are they ACTUALLY getting acceptance offers? It seems crazy to me (based on the ads I’ve seen on craigslist) that someone would actually pay $10K (hell, even $5K) for a 2bed/2bath condo for 5 nights. But, when in Rome …

Sincerely,

SukaEveryMinute”

I have to admit, I’ve thought about renting out a room myself but I haven’t pulled the trigger yet. You can find some crazy craigslist options here. So has anyone decided to rent a room, apartment/condo or house for the inauguration? If so how much are you asking?

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!
