that some of the grandchildren came from far away
to enjoy this wonderful day with us.
Maureen Kilgallen and her Irish terrier, Gibson,
enjoying the ambiance outside Pine Knoll Shores'
Town Hall, alongside a few donated items for the "PKS
Kayak for the Warriors" Silent Auction on Saturday,
June 12. Although most of the focus on that day will
be on the "Big Race Event" which starts at 10 a.m. at
Gamer Park and the Bicycle Fun Race at McNeill Park
at 8 a.m., a variety of beautiful and unique items for
the Silent Auction are starting to come in at a lively
pace. Vendors at the picturesque "Friendly Market"
in Morehead City have already donated several
outstanding handmade items and art works. The
names of our wonderful donors, so far, are being
highlighted in this issue of "Kramer's Komer". We
are anxious to add more names to that list, so please
consider donating what you can to our "Third Annual
PKS Kayak for the Warriors" event.
For more information and to find out how you can
donate, volunteer, or participate in this fun-filled
patriotic fundraiser, please call PKS Town Hall at 247-
4353 or visit our Website at www.kayakforthewarriors.

Annual Easter-Egg Hunt
By Jill Cross
We had another great egg hunt at Gamer Park.
Weather that was perfect in every way brought a
huge crowd. Missy Klor and I were excited to hide
the most eggs ever this year—1,800! The toddlers had
their own section roped off again so they didn't butt
heads with the serious egg finders.
We would like to thank everyone who donated in one
way or another— whether it was by baking cookies,
donating eggs, hiding them, or giving money or candy.
All contributions were appreciated.
The Easter Bunny made an appearance this year,
which was a terrific surprise. Parents had fun taking
pictures of their children hugging the bunny, even
though a few of the kids screamed when they were
brought near the huge bunny. Mayor Ken Jones even
got a burmy hug in while enjoying the event.
We so appreciate the great attendance, knowing
It's A Girl. Proud grandmother Linda Brickhouse
holds her first grandchild, Blake Leigh Brickhouse.
