Armed Forces Retirement Home in the New York Times

Good eye Express and thanks to a reader for alerting me to this article in today’s New York Times. The article is about Abraham Lincoln’s Cottage where he wrote the Emancipation Proclamation. Read the article here. According to the Times “While the house will be open by online reservation only to tour groups of 15 people per hour, the trust hopes to welcome every Washington fifth grader each year, and to expand to a larger mission of catering to Lincoln scholars.” Pretty cool.

Thanks to Sarah for sending the crispy find above, from Petworth. More finds:

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!
