Riri the puppy is ready for her forever home

Looking to expand your family? Riri is an energetic 7-month-old puppy up for adoption at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.

This girl was in a sad state of emaciation, according to AWLA spokesperson Erin Shackelford.

“She was incredibly skinny and her little legs were stained yellow,” said Shackelford. “She had clearly had a rough start to life, but you’d never know it by her loving personality.”

Riri is now ready for her forever home! She’s full of energy and searching for someone to handle her enthusiastic puppy years. As a puppy, Riri still requires some basic training. She is of course motivated by treats!

This girl loves her toys and a game of tug will be very much appreciated.

Be sure to check out Riri’s entire profile!

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!
