The Board of Directors of the Broad Street Clinic announces “An Evening for
the Broad Street Clinic” on Saturday, September 13, at the Crystal Coast Civic
Center. All proceeds will benefit the Broad Street Clinic, a non-profit organization
that provides healthcare services for certain chronic diseases to low-income adults

community support is essential.
The evening begins at 6:30 p.m. with “Taste of the Crystal Coast,” featuring 17
area restaurants. Beverages will be provided as well. From 8-9 p.m.. North Carolina
singer/songwriter Jeanne Jolly will perform, followed by dancing with Dr. DJ (Dr.

What’s Up With PARC?
By Jean McDanal
It’s hard to believe that were talking about events in October. Where did the
summer go?
Mark your calendar for Saturday, October 4, for the Community Yard Sale. It will
begin at 7 a.m. and end around noon. If you have your own table, you can rent a
space for $10. If you need a table, you can rent one for an additional $5. Tables will
be set up at town hall. The Pine Knoll Shores Fire Auxiliary will be selling breakfast
items, so you can fortify yourself against the hordes of treasure seekers. Please con
tact Teresa Stanton-Law at tstantolawl@gmail.com or 222-4356. Reservations must
be made by Tuesday, September 30. If you do not want to cart left-over items home,
we will be sending unwanted items to local charities.
On the following Saturday, October 11, the Fire Auxiliary will be featuring safety
programs for adults and children from 3:00-6:30 p.m. at the Public Safety Building.
Come on out for hot dogs and drinks and help celebrate Fire Prevention Week.
These two events will be the only town-sponsored events for the month of
October. The Pumpkin Fest has been put on indejinite hold due to low participation
rates.
Our next activity after the yard sale is the Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot on
November 27 at 9 a.m. Watch for further details in next month’s column.
Your PARC Committee welcomes any suggestions for activities that will get
people out, moving and involved. If you have any suggestions for PARC, please do
not hesitate to email me at PARCPR@ec.rr.com or come to one of our meetings.
The next meeting is Tuesday, September 9, at 9 a.m. at town hall.
