Like many of you who don’t have cable I’ve been curious to know how this conversion to digital tv was going to go. The way we’ve been saturated with messages like – “In Feb. 2009 your tv will no longer work and you’re life as you know it will end…”. It turns out it’s not really a big deal at all. I’m about as technologically inept as they come and even I was able to plug in the converter box. I just got my government coupons and headed over to Radio Shack in DC USA in Columbia Heights. After a quick 45 minute wait I was on my way… Now I don’t watch tons of tv but I have been blown away with the new channels you get through digital tv. Pictured above you can see a program from NBC 3. It is called universal sports or something like that. If you love the sports that don’t get much coverage besides the Olympics you’re going to love this channel. I’ve seen cross country skiing, down hill skiing, short track cycling, etc. Additionally, there is ABC 3 which offers tons of old school programs like “That’s Incredible”, “The Hulk”, “Magnum PI”, “Knight Rider”, “The A Team” etc. So fear not fellow rabbit ear users. If I can do it you can too.
So what’s your favorite 70s/80s TV program – I think Magnum PI is going to be tough to beat?

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!
