Great American Square Dance Revival:
“June 22, 2013 8:30 pm
St. Stephens Church
1525 Newton St. NW
Cost: $5
The summer solstice is almost here! Since we can’t celebrate with a barn dance in the country, we’ll do the next best thing – a square dance right here in the heart of the city. Join us for a delightful solstice soiree with sweet, stompin’ fiddle tunes and all the best folks in town (that’s you!). It’s the shortest night of the year, so make it good.
We are so excited that Will Mentor will be traveling down from Vermont to call for us! And live music will be provided by West Virginia darlings, Lars Prillaman on fiddle, Matt Metz on banjo, Evan Ball on guitar, and Melissa Wright on bass. Hot damn, y’all.
All are welcome – young and old, brand new and experienced dancers. No partner, lessons, overalls, or fancy dress needed.”

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!
