If you have any fun or interesting animal/pet photos please shoot me an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail(dot)com with ‘Animal Fix’ in the title and say the name of your pet and what neighborhood you’re from or upload to the PoPville flickr pool with your pets name and neighborhood. I can’t guarantee I’ll get them all posted but I’ll do my best.

Some of the dog people in Mt Pleasant are “fostering” a dog and could use help finding him a great home. The story is that his “mom” found him in the streets of New Orleans where she is in college. She managed to keep him for a while, until the school found out and threatened to kick her out if he didn’t get rid of him (not sure of the details). Her mom lives here, but cant have a dog, so she reached out to a friend in Mt P, and now he is staying with a local couple and others of us are helping take care of him/find him a home. The fantastic couple that is keeping him wasnt in the market for a second dog, and they are stretched pretty thin. Here are his stats:
Ollie is a 1 yr old Pit mix, appx 55 lbs, and will probably fill out to about 65. He is super sweet, LOVES other dogs, good with kids and cats, and bonds very quickly to people that are sweet to him. His only fault is that he drools a bit at the water bowl… He is super snuggly and licky too. He has had basic training, but needs a person/people to work with him on expanding this. He is up to date on all shots, neutered and microchipped. Ollie would make a fantastic dog for someone who has the time and desire to give him the love that he needs! [email protected]

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!
