“Autumn is an active season in the Town of Pike Road, and we invite you to tune in on Monday, Sept. 12, to learn about all the opportunities to get involved as the Mondays with the Mayor radio show broadcasts live from NYC Gyro! This monthly program is designed to provide you the opportunity to connect with me and connect with all the great things happening in our community.

 

This weekend, explore the Pike Road Quilters’ Quilt Show – over 70 quilts handmade by our neighbors are on display, and many are even for sale! It’s also time to register for Lunch & Learn, coming up on Sept. 15. This quarterly networking & professional development event will return with a focus on leading change and lunch from a local restaurant. Also, Sept. 16 is the deadline to order commemorative, personalized Veterans Bricks! Orders placed by Sept. 16 will be installed and dedicated during the November 6, 2022, Veterans Appreciation Ceremony. Last but not least, we are looking forward to the 2022 Hay, Look at Us! hay bale decorating contest. Pike Road businesses, neighborhoods, and organizations are invited to sign up by the Sept. 19 deadline.

 

If any of these opportunities interests you, visit us at www.pikeroad.us to sign up or learn more! Get in touch and stay involved by finding us on social media – search @townofpikeroad on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

 

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other.

 

Thank you and God Bless.”

“Pike Road, thank you for your enthusiasm and your engagement. No matter the season, it is sure to be meaningful with a connected community like ours. Since Monday, we have already received a great number of Hay, Look at Us! hay bale decorating contest applications, and we look forward to receiving many more from Pike Road businesses, neighborhoods, and organizations by the Sept. 19 deadline. Hay, Look at Us! is just one way to join the fun this fall, and now is the time to make sure you do not miss a thing.

 

Starting this weekend, explore a special treasure at the Pike Road Arts Center: Over 70 quilts handmade by our neighbors are on display, and many are even for sale! Then, get your hands dirty and learn how to make the most of your harvest with the Ag & Stewardship Club, which will host a Canning & Preserving workshop on Sept. 9. Plus, the Pike Road Business Association is pleased to invite you to participate in the next Lunch & Learn. On Sept. 15, this quarterly networking & professional development event will return with a focus on leading change and free lunch from a local restaurant.

 

With all this activity, don’t forget about Veterans Bricks! Honor a veteran you know and love with a commemorative brick in the Pike Road Veterans Memorial. Orders placed by Sept. 16 will be installed and dedicated during the November 6, 2022 Veterans Appreciation Ceremony.
