Keeping Up With the Clerk
By Charlie Rocci, Pine Knoll Shores Town Clerk
Ken Jones Award, important January meeting
December is a great time to reflect on the last year and the people who made
it special. Around this time of year, the town likes to recognize community
members who have made a positive impact in the community and celebrate
them for their hard work. This year, we will continue with the third annual Ken
Jones Public Service Award to commemorate his dedicated commitment to
public service in Pine Knoll Shores.
A potential winner of the Ken Jones Public Service Award will have a long
history of dedicated service to Pine Knoll Shores. This person promotes strong
communal values, such as professional excellence, civic engagement and
community impact. Eligible persons are all residents, volunteers or employees
of the Town of Pine Knoll Shores. If you believe someone to be a strong
candidate for this award, please submit a form on their behalf highlighting their
involvement with bettering the community.

Annual Clmstmas Caroling
The tradition of sharing holiday cheer in Pine Knoll Shores through caroling
will continue this year on December 11. Carolers will assemble at Garner Park at
4:45 p.m. and depart at 5 o’clock on pre-planned routes.
A good voice is not a requirement, just a big heart with a desire to spread cheer,
and children are encouraged to join in the fun. Participants should wear weather-
appropriate clothing, embellished with Christmas gear, antlers, etc., and should
bring bells and a flashlight.
Let us know about those who would enjoy a visit from carolers by emailing
Chris Voss at christinemvoss@gmail.com by December 3. Routes will be
organized after this date, and no new names will be accepted after the 3rd.
Please email Kathy Falandys Tilyard at katcoast@gmail.corn if you plan to carol
or if you have questions. There will be an after party at the home of Susan and
Tommy Toms. Please bring your favorite beverage and a goody to share.
