PKS Women's Club
Members of Pine Knoll Shores Women's
Club got the holiday season off to a rousing
start by participating in the town's annual
Christmas Parade Dec. 1, waving happily
to parade watchers along the route from
their gaily decorated float.
Their celebration of the holiday
continued Dec. 7 at the armual Christmas
luncheon at The Country Club of the
Crystal Coast. Husbands were invited
to join in the festivities and many were
among the 75 persons attending. Three
of the spouses, Clark Edwards, Ted
Goetzinger and Vic Filan, became the
stars of the entertainment portion of the
party with their rendition of Rudolph
the Red Nosed Reindeer. They sported
appropriate prop noses. Guitarist Ron
Maxwell and Singer Gayle Mitchner
rounded out the program, presenting
traditional Christmas favorites as well as
accompanying the three Rudolphs.
The luncheon was co-chaired by Marsha
Dean and Kathy Kimel who also, with
the help of Moni Bottlinger, fashioned
candlelit hurricane globes encircled by
fresh greenery to add a holiday touch to
the tables.
The next meeting of the club's board
of directors will be held at 9 a.m. Jan. 16
at town hall, followed by the monthly
club meeting at the same site Jan. 25. A
social half hour at 9:30 a.m. precedes the
meeting at 10 a.m. Guest speaker will be

who will offer tips on how to prepare
valentines.

Once Upon a Mattress
A Musical Comedy
Music by Mary Rodgers, Lyrics by
MarshallBarer. MusicalDirector: Judy Long
Producer: Hanna Marshbanks
If you thought you knew the story of
The Princess and The Pea, you may be in
for a walloping surprise! Did you know
that Princess Winifred actually swam the
moat to reach Prince Dauntless, The Drab?
Or that it wasn't the pea at all that caused
the princess a sleepless night? Carried on
a wave of wonderful songs, this rollicking
spin on the familiar classic of royal

developments. For one thing, an increase
in both vehicular and pedestrian traffic
as a result of such things as expansion
of the aquarium and the addition of new
beach accesses make the need for proper
pedestrian facilities ever more pressing.
There are now five public beach access
points in the community with five more
still to be added.
Another new factor lies in the fact that
within the past year the community
has for the first time employed a town
manager with wide experience in the
plarming, budgeting and implementation
of major projects. It has also expanded the
capacity of its already highly experienced
planning and licensing department with
the addition of a director of public works.
It is felt that puts the town in a strong
position from the standpoint of having
the resources to follow through and carry
out major projects.
Then there is the fact there is a strong
desire among the citizens of Pine
Knoll Shores for pedestrian facilities as
demonstrated by the survey done this
summer by the town's recreation advisory
committee (RAC). Sidewalks were listed
as a primary need by the majority of the
nearly 500 respondents to that survey,
which sought the opinion of citizens
on what recreational facilities would be
beneficial.
Kramer said the state has received 40
applications for planning funds and is
expected to award approximately 18
grants. He expects the newly formed
Pine Knoll Shores Pedestrian Master Plan
Committee (PKSPMP C) to meet for the
first time in February.
Those who have agreed to serve
include representatives of the three
major homeowners associations, Norma
McClellon for PKA: Larry Kacmarcik
for PIKSCO, and Charles McBriarty for
Beacon's Reach. Other members are
Jay Barnes, representing the aquarium;
Maureen Kilgallen of the recreational
advisory committee, Kathy Werle for
the community appearance commission,
Elaine Tempel, representing the Carteret
County Mayors' Committee on Disabled
Persons; Bob Danehy for the board
of commissioners, Ken Jones as a
representative of the planning board,
and Kramer for the town. Others may
be added.
