“Dear PoPville,

I almost wrecked my car when I saw this just now. I asked one of the workers what was happening and he said they were “installing some new windows to respond to concerns from the community.”

This community member is sincerely grateful for it. SORG should get credit when deserved; they’ve certainly gotten much deserved criticism over the years for this property. I’m hoping there will be some lighting to go with it, but this is a huge, if principally cosmetic step. I wish SORG would engage with the community. They’d have a lot more friends in the neighborhood if they did.

Other neighbors have spoken to other workers and have been told that they are starting on a condo project, not just installing windows on the ” target=”_blank”> church at 10th and V. Either way, it’s great to see progress.”

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!
