Acrobat ‘Jumpy’ Up for Adoption with Animal Welfare League of Alexandria

Jumpy lives up to her name.

The five-month-old kitten is up for adoption through the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.

“As a kitten, she loves jumping of every variety, from pouncing to leaping to bounding after a toy,” said Gina Hardter, spokesperson for the AWLA. “She’s especially fond of toys, and loves to chase after laser pointers and wand toys. Though she can be a little shy around new people, she loves other cats and might even enjoy a kitty sibling in her new home as a playmate.”

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!
