“It is an exciting time in the Town of Pike Road, and we are pleased to wish all of our local students, parents, teachers, administrators, and other educators a happy start to the school year! We know the Pike Road Schools team has been working hard all summer long to prepare for another great year, and we are so appreciative. PRS students will return to classrooms next Wednesday, Aug. 10, and we can’t wait to see what Patriots of all ages accomplish and create this year.

Your support for our community’s schools is an illustration of the involvement and connectivity that makes the Town of Pike Road a special place to call home. So is the P.R.A.Y.E.R. (Pike Road Area Your Emergency Response) Team, which involves local faith leaders working together to meet the needs of our community, and we want to say thank you. This summer, the P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team created a meal program to assist families experiencing food insecurity over the summer vacation, when school meals were unavailable. Together, our local churches recruited and organized over 150 volunteers who picked up, packed, and distributed pantry items and meals. Every church in the Town of Pike Road participated, and, in partnership with the Montgomery Area Food Bank and our local Publix, they served hundreds of families across Pike Road. It has been amazing to see this project evolve from an idea to a successful program, all because of people coming together. Thank you, Pike Road, for all you do to show your love for your neighbors.

If you are looking for a way to serve the community, we encourage you to give back by giving blood today, August 5, at Town Hall. Nationwide, a shortage of blood donations is affecting the supply of this life-saving resource, and taking just twenty minutes out of your day to could give someone else the rest of their life. Stop by Town Hall to donate until 4 p.m. today, August 5.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“The summer may be winding down, but our calendar is heating up! Kick off the month of August with three community events happening next week.

On Tuesday, August 2, join us for National Night Out, a free evening of family-friendly fun, community building, and getting to know our local law enforcement. Presented by the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, National Night Out is a great way to connect with neighbors and first responders, learn how YOU can help keep our community safe, all while having fun. Don’t miss this community-building opportunity – join us from 5 – 8 p.m. on August 2 at Home Depot on Chantilly Parkway.

Then, the Pike Road Arts Council will host an Encaustic Wax Art Workshop, created to teach beginners how to utilize this ancient beeswax art form. Whether you’re interested in history or the arts, this is a great program for you – and it’s even better when you bring a friend. Email patty@pikeroad.us to register now!

Finally, give back by giving blood on Friday, August 5. There is a nationwide blood shortage and taking twenty minutes out of your day to give back to your community could give someone else the rest of their life, and blood donated through LifeSouth saves lives in OUR community. Stop by Town Hall to donate from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. on August 5.

“It has been a great week in the Town of Pike Road! On Tuesday, we had the opportunity to welcome students from Pike Road Schools for the annual YMCA Youth in Government Day program. Local leaders, including members of our Town Council and Planning Commission, representatives of several service providers, PRS Superintendent Dr. Chuck Ledbetter, and others joined us to share the Pike Road Story, all about local government, and how collaboration and innovation can create opportunities. This is such a special program, and we hope the participating students left with a greater understanding and renewed hometown pride that they will carry with them as they continue their journeys into the future.

We also discussed our ENHANCE initiative, the roadmap for quality of life, that drives community programming in the Town of Pike Road. The volunteer-led committees that fall under ENHANCE are always active, and there are so many ways to get involved. This week, we encourage you to check out the Art All Around Us art show, presented by the Pike Road Arts Council, and participate in the annual Spring Cleanup, presented in connection with statewide Alabama People Against a Littered State Spring Cleanup and our Neighborhood Leaders. Then, our Community Enrichment group is working to host a Community Blood Drive in partnership with LifeSouth Community Blood Centers on April 29.

“The Town of Pike Road is always a special place, but it is particularly welcoming, warm, and energetic during the holiday season. From celebrating together at the Christmas Tree Lighting to enjoying all the lights and creative displays on lawns across town, we appreciate how you engage and show your community spirit.

One of the joys of the holiday season is the opportunity to give gifts and share our love for one another. On Monday, Dec. 20, we hope you will join us in sharing from our abundance with our neighbors in need through both the annual Season of Giving Holiday Collections Drive and a Community Blood Drive, presented in partnership with LifeSouth. Stop by Town Hall from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. to donate blood or drop off Season of Giving donations like hygiene items and non-perishable food items. For over ten years, your generosity has made the Season of Giving a successful collections drive showcasing the spirit of our community, and we are thankful to have the opportunity to continue this tradition in 2021. At this time, there is also an emergency need for blood donations in our area, and with LifeSouth, your donations stay local. Just 20 minutes of your time can help save up to 3 lives, making the holiday season a little brighter for even more of our neighbors. We encourage you to consider giving the gift of life this Monday at Town Hall!

With your help, the Town of Pike Road is also pleased to support the Montgomery City/County Emergency Management Agency in their efforts to provide a welcoming warming center for those in need of shelter during winter’s cold weather. Recent contributions to the EMA included kitchen supplies to help provide warm meals and warm-weather clothing items you have donated. Thank you, Pike Road, for all you do.

As the holiday season continues, we ask you to remember that COVID-19 is an ongoing challenge in our community and our state. Please continue to make smart, safe decisions as you celebrate all this time of year has to offer. One of the most effective tools to combat COVID-19 is vaccination. Initial vaccines and additional booster doses are free and readily available at multiple locations within our community, and individuals ages 5+ are eligible to receive the Pfizer vaccine. In addition, the Alabama Department of Public Health recommends that immunocompromised individuals receive a booster vaccine after they are fully vaccinated. Adults 18 and older are eligible to receive a booster dose six months after receiving their first Moderna or Pfizer shot, or two months after receiving the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Click here to learn more about COVID-19 vaccines and boosters and where you can receive yours.

As we look toward 2022, we don’t want you to miss out on any upcoming activities. Visit www.pikeroad.us to subscribe to our weekly e-newsletter and receive town updates and event information. The weekly e-newsletter is just one of the many ways to stay connected to the Town of Pike Road, but we’re also on social media (just search @townofpikeroad), and we have a monthly radio show that visits local businesses and locations across Town. Tune in or stop by on Dec. 20 when the Mondays with the Mayor radio show broadcasts live from Town Hall!

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

Thank you and God Bless.”

“December has kicked off with a strong start in the Town of Pike Road, and your engagement has made it all possible! We had so much fun celebrating the holiday season with you at the Town Christmas Tree Lighting last Friday. Then, this week, the community had the exciting opportunity to celebrate Pike Road Schools’ first State Champion football team, two State Champion cheerleading teams, and all of the people who made this success possible, from coaches and administrators to fans and the Pike Road Schools Band. Yesterday, we gathered with the Pike Road Business Association to look ahead at 2022 and prepare for new trends and new success, and there is still more happening in the Town of Pike Road. Next week, don’t forget to stop by Town Hall through Wednesday, Dec. 15, to pick up a kit featuring Postcards for Santa and return your notes to our special mailbox to receive a letter back from the Jolly Old Elf himself.

The Season of Giving Holiday Collections Drive is also an important part of the holiday season in the Town of Pike Road. Through Dec. 21, we invite and encourage the community to drop off non-perishable food items, household necessities, personal hygiene items, and cold-weather clothes for both the Food Pantry at Woodland United Methodist Church and local veterans in need. The Central Alabama Veterans Health Care Systems, which serves veterans across Alabama and into Georgia, and volunteers from our local food pantry will distribute your gifts to our neighbors in need. Click here for a full list of needed items from the Food Pantry and CAVHCS! Another way to give back is by giving blood. To help meet the emergency need for blood donations in our area, the Town of Pike Road has partnered with LifeSouth Community Blood Centers to host a mobile blood drive at Town Hall on Dec. 20. Walk-ins are welcome, and remember: It only takes about 20 minutes to donate blood, and each donation can save up to three lives!

With the active holiday season now in full swing, we ask you to remember that COVID-19 is an ongoing challenge in our community and our state.

“It is an exciting time in the Town of Pike Road! Just last night, the Pike Road Schools Patriots football team made history with their first appearance in the 5A State Championship matchup. The Patriots brought home a convincing win and have the distinction of being Pike Road’s first State Champion football team, after only four years of varsity football. We appreciate the dedication and commitment of so many: players, coaches, fans, and many excited and engaged students! It was great to see the thousands of Pike Road people gathered in Birmingham to collectively support our team and community.

Now, tonight, we will gather in celebration of the holiday season and our many blessings at the Town Christmas Tree Lighting! The annual Christmas Tree Lighting is such a special event, and this year, it will feature holiday performances from the Pike Road Schools Show Choir and Pike Road Dance Academy. I look forward to reading a Christmas story to our youngest Pike Road citizens before we enjoy a magical, snowy treat. Don’t forget to stop by Town Hall through Dec. 15 to pick up a kit featuring Postcards for Santa, and then return your notes to our special mailbox to receive a letter back from the Jolly Old Elf himself.

During this time of year, we also want to remind you that the holiday season is a time of need for many of our neighbors. Beginning at tonight’s Christmas Tree Lighting, we invite you to help meet those needs through the Season of Giving holiday collections drive.

To learn more about these opportunities, give us a call at 334.272.9883 or visit www.pikeroad.us.

Don’t forget to schedule in the Pike Road Business Association Lunch & Learn coming up on Dec. 9! The holiday season is a busy one, but it’s also a great time to look ahead at the year to come. Whether you’re in business in the Pike Road area or you are interested in entrepreneurship, we encourage you to join us on Dec. 9 for the final Business Association Lunch & Learn of 2021. We’ll network and enjoy lunch from a local restaurant, and Professional Trainer Sharleen Smith of Troy University Continuing Education & Outreach will lead “Leadership During Change” to help us each prepare to lead our way into the New Year.

“The holiday season is upon us, and next week we will celebrate Thanksgiving. Then, the Town Christmas Tree Lighting and the Christmas holiday will be just around the corner. As we enter this season of celebration and joy, we are reminded of our many blessings. We have so much to be thankful for in the Town of Pike Road, and we are so appreciative of everything you do to make this town a special place to call home.

First, we want to congratulate our young people in Pike Road. We have so many great things happening. The Pike Road High School Patriots football team is going to the third round of the state playoffs for the first time. The cheerleader teams, volleyball, cross country, band, and all of our other fall athletes are receiving wonderful recognition for their excellence. We are so excited about the many successful extracurricular programs at PRS! Our academic programs are continuing to show achievements like having our first National Merit Scholar Finalist. It is exciting to be a Patriot supporter. Congratulations to all of our young people. We have many things much for which to be thankful!

As we give thanks for our abundance, we ask you to remember that there are families around us for whom this is a time of great need. We encourage you to get involved in a variety of opportunities to give back, including the Pike Road Arts Council’s Christmas Tree Silent Auction and the Season of Giving holiday collections drive. This weekend, all are invited to stop by the Pike Road Arts Center on Wallahatchie Road to check out the wreaths and mini trees, decorated with hand-crafted ornaments, that are available for auction. All proceeds from this activity go directly to the Food Pantry at Woodland UMC, which serves nearly 100 families each month. Then, the Town Christmas Tree Lighting on Dec. 3 will kick off the Season of Giving. During this annual collections drive, we invite the community to drop off non-perishable food items, personal hygiene items, and cold-weather clothes for both the Food Pantry and local veterans in need.

“Today and tomorrow, Oct. 15 and 16, we are excited to celebrate a special Pike Road tradition that has grown with our community over the past decade. Nearly 50 artists from the River Region and beyond are here in the Town of Pike Road for the 10th annual Plein Air Paint Out, during which they will paint the beautiful scenes of our hometown. If you see an artist out painting this weekend, we encourage you to say hello and help make them feel welcome, as well as enjoy the opportunity to watch as these artists bring their canvas to life.

The fall fun continues following this weekend’s Paint Out. On Monday, Oct. 18, stop by the Pike Road Agriculture, Recreation & Performing Arts Center off Trotman Road for the Montgomery County Farm-City Festival.

“This week has been a significant one for the Town of Pike Road and Pike Road Schools. On October 5, our community voted to provide additional resources to Pike Road Schools for the construction of a new high school. With these results, PRS will now be able to move forward with its facility plans and meet the capital needs of the growing system. Further, school leaders will be able to utilize the new construction to provide expanded academic programs. Investing in education has always been fundamental for the Town of Pike Road because when we invest in our students, we are investing in the leaders of tomorrow.

We want to say thank you to everyone who came out to cast their vote and make their voice heard. We are always encouraged when we see the love and commitment our people have for their community. While we are pleased to continue to support education, we also remain committed to long-term planning, quality of life programming, and services that meet the needs of our community. The Town will continue to provide opportunities for every citizen, and we will do this with an emphasis on fiscal responsibility and stewardship. As we approach 24 years since the Town of Pike Road was incorporated as a municipality, we look forward to all the future holds for our special hometown.

Fall is a great time in the Town of Pike Road, and people enjoy many unique activities like arts and crafts festivals, art shows, athletic events, and the Hay, Look at Us! contest.

“Fall is a busy season in the Town of Pike Road, and we have many things to look forward to.

First, I would like to remind every citizen that, on Oct. 5, there will be an important vote on a proposal to raise the revenue to build a new high school in the Town of Pike Road. The Pike Road Schools Board of Education has analyzed the needs and projected the costs of construction. As a result, the school board is recommending the proposed property tax referendum. By adopting this proposal, the school will have the resources in place to continue the path forward for public education. The school has engaged professionals and developed this plan focused on meeting student needs. The action used to develop this proposal follows the same strategic thought pattern that has been applied since the initial days of the Town. As mayor, I understand the value of education, and I will be voting for the proposal. Likewise, the Town Council voted unanimously in support of a resolution endorsing the proposal. If you have questions, please contact the Office of the Superintendent of Schools by visiting www.pikeroadschools.org. They will be happy to provide all the details. Education is an important part of Pike Road, and voting for this proposal helps provide critical infrastructure for our schools.

In addition, please recognize that as we enjoy everything from football games to the upcoming Plein Air Paint Out, it is important to remember that COVID-19 is an ongoing challenge in our community and our state. Together, we have a responsibility to make smart decisions that keep both our families and our community safe and healthy. Please continue to recognize the value of the simple things like social distancing, mask-wearing, and hand-washing that help protect you and those around you. One of the most effective tools to combat COVID-19 continues to be vaccination. Vaccines are free and readily available at multiple locations within our community, and individuals ages 12+ are eligible to receive the vaccine. Click here to learn more about COVID-19 vaccines and where you can receive yours. As we continue to work together to combat the spread of this illness, we will continue to enjoy opportunities to gather and safely enjoy the company of family and friends.

Despite the ongoing challenges of COVID-19, there is so much to celebrate in the Town of Pike Road. We have a record number of Pike Road neighborhoods, businesses, and organizations participating in the 2021 Hay, Look at Us! Hay Bale Decorating Contest, and we can’t wait to see what you create together. As you bring your hay bale creations to life, we encourage you to share photos and stories of your teamwork with us by emailing info@pikeroad.us or by tagging @townofpikeroad and #mypikeroad on social media. We can’t wait to see what you create together! Also on the horizon is the 10th annual Plein Air Paint Out, which will bring dozens of artists from across the country to the Town of Pike Road. We encourage you to get outside during the weekend of Oct. 15 – 16 to meet the artists, and join us on Oct. 16 for an art show, sale & reception featuring scenes from across our community.

An important part of our growing community is the Pike Road Schools system. On Oct. 5, there will be a vote on a property tax proposal.

If you have questions, please contact the Office of the Superintendent of Schools by visiting www.pikeroadschools.org. They will be happy to provide all the details.

“Today, we are humbled and grateful for the opportunity to say thank you: Thank you to all of the men and women who serve and sacrifice on our behalf. This weekend marks the somber milestone of twenty years since the terrible events of September 11, 2011, and we encourage you to take a moment to remember the lives that were lost, the families affected, and all those who responded with courage and selflessness in the wake of these events. We are so fortunate to be able to live our lives knowing there are multitudes of servant-hearted people, from the United States military to our first responders and local law enforcement, who work together to keep our communities and our country safe and to protect our freedoms. While we pray that we never again experience a day like September 11, 2011, we also commit to never forget the lessons learned and the importance of expressing appreciation for our many blessings.

It is an exciting time in the Town of Pike Road, and lots of great things are on the horizon! Next Thursday, we hope you will join us for the Pike Road Business Association’s quarterly Lunch & Learn program, presented in partnership with Troy University Continuing Education & Outreach. With health and safety in mind, virtual and in-person options are available for this event, which will focus on helping you discover your personal strengths and how they can be used to build leadership skills, face challenging situations, and, ultimately, grow your business. Then, don’t forget all that’s happening on Friday the 17th: Both Veterans Brick orders and Hay, Look at Us! applications are due by 5 p.m.! Visit www.pikeroad.us or stop by Town Hall to find the forms and information you need to participate in these special Pike Road programs.

These personalized, commemorative bricks will be installed in the Town of Pike Road Veterans Memorial Walk of Honor and dedicated during the November Veterans Appreciation Ceremony. We are grateful to be able to provide this opportunity to honor our nation’s military heroes, and we encourage you to explore this opportunity prior to the Sept. 17 deadline.

“There is so much to celebrate in the Town of Pike Road and across our great nation this weekend. Thank you, friends and neighbors, for joining us in celebration yesterday evening for SummerFest. Seeing our community gather together again for this traditional time of food, family-friendly fun, and fireworks is something to celebrate in itself, and we are so appreciative of your engagement and your enthusiasm. We also want to share our gratitude with everyone who helped make SummerFest possible, from our friends at Cottonwood Golf Club and our partners at the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office and both the Rolling Hills Lakes & Pike Road Volunteer Fire Departments, to our volunteers from the Pike Road Kiwanis Club, Saint James Church, and First Baptist Church, as well as the NYC Gyro, Kona Ice, and Potz & Panz food trucks, The Music Guys, LAF Game Co., Inflatables of Montgomery, and, of course, the Town of Pike Road team and our Town Council for their support. It was spectacular to be able to gather and enjoy time together in our special hometown, and we would be wrong not to thank each of you, the over 2,000 citizens and River Region neighbors who joined us for SummerFest, too. Whether you joined us for SummerFest or have other plans this Independence Day, we encourage you to share your photos with us by tagging @townofpikeroad on social media and using our hashtag, #PikeRoad4thofJuly.

With the Fourth of July holiday weekend ahead of us, we want to share a few health and safety reminders. This month, we have been pleased to share a short video series in partnership with the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office that showcases the community safety programs offered by the MCSO. These programs, which are available for free to Montgomery County residents, help do everything from offering extra security to your home while you are away (think: summer vacation!) to regularly checking in on disabled or home-bound loved ones. If you have not already, we encourage you to visit us on Facebook to learn more about the MCSO’s community safety programs, and enroll in those that fit your needs. Please also use extra caution on the roadways, which are particularly busy on summer weekends.

As we all know, last year, the COVID-19 pandemic changed the way we celebrated traditional holidays and special occasions, including the Fourth of July. Now, due to the ongoing commitment our community has shown to making smart, responsible decisions, and the diligent work of our healthcare heroes, we can safely gather together again. However, as you enjoy the opportunities summer has to offer, please recognize the value of continuing to protect yourselves and others, and exercise personal responsibility as it relates to COVID-19. Please keep a mask handy and honor the requests of individual businesses and organizations who have health precautions in place. We also want to remind you that the COVID-19 vaccines are an excellent tool to help protect ourselves, our families, and our community, and we encourage you to explore opportunities to receive a vaccine. In Alabama, individuals ages 12+ are now eligible to receive the vaccine. Click here to learn more about COVID-19 vaccine safety, eligibility, and availability from Alabama Public Health.

Summer fun continues in the Town of Pike Road, and we hope you explore the variety of activities from our ENHANCE initiative committees. Tomorrow, July 3, visit the Pike Road Arts Center for freshly-grilled hotdogs and the I’ve Been Everywhere, Man! Art Show. While you’re there, don’t forget to register for door prizes – including a weekend getaway – while enjoying the travels of our local artists through their original work. The PRAC will be closed on Sunday, July 4, but the art show will continue on weekends through the month of July. For more information on these events and everything else happening in our special hometown, visit us online at www.pikeroad.us to register for our weekly e-newsletter, and find us on social media (just search @townofpikeroad)!

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Thank you for all you do, and have a safe, happy Fourth of July!

Thank you and God Bless.”

In a region that is touched daily by our military men, women and their families, it is so important for us to remember all they – and those who came before them – do for our community and our nation. Thank you – we appreciate you, and we are humbled by the sacrifices made on our behalf.

Traditionally, Memorial Day Weekend marks the start of summer, and we are excited to enter this active season with growing opportunities to safely enjoy all it has to offer. Thank you, Pike Road, for your continued commitment to making smart, responsible decisions. Your diligence has helped keep our community healthy and allowed for more flexibility and fewer restrictions as we progress through the challenges of COVID-19.

“It is an exciting time in the Town of Pike Road! Today, we celebrate the milestone of our first in-person ENHANCE initiative event in over a year: The Ag & Stewardship Club will create container gardens in Veterans Park this afternoon. Thank you, Pike Road, for your diligence and commitment to making responsible, smart, safe decisions. Your efforts have helped us make so much progress in the fight against COVID-19, and we look forward to the days when this pandemic is behind us and we can enjoy all our special hometown has to offer.

We also want to share our congratulations with the Pike Road Schools Patriots! Our community’s youth continue to excel in the classroom and across a variety of extracurricular activities. Spring athletes made history this year as the Patriot baseball team competed in the State Championship, track athletes brought home first place, and so much more. Now, as we wrap up this unique school year, it is time to send another class of Patriots out on their next adventure: Congratulations, Class of 2021! Thanks to the dedicated efforts of the PRS team, the Patriots will receive their diplomas in a traditional graduation ceremony next week. We can’t say thank you enough to Pike Road Schools’ administrators, lead learners, staff, parents and students for making this possible!

This summer, we are excited to present more opportunities to learn and grow together through the ENHANCE initiative! Today, the Ag & Stewardship Club hosts two sold-out programs: Fire Ant Management with experts from the Alabama Cooperative Extension System and Container Gardening with Leatherwood Nursery. This coming Monday, we hope you will join the conversation as the Mondays with the Mayor monthly radio program broadcasts from Cara’s Trattoria, a new restaurant in Pike Road Station, on May 24. We’ll share updates about everything on the horizon, like the June 10 Business Association Lunch & Learn, I’ve Been Everywhere, Man! Art Show, and more.

“This week, we were reminded of the citizen engagement and community spirit that has always made the Town of Pike Road such a special place to call home when student leaders from Pike Road Intermediate School made a special presentation to the Town Council. Among a variety of efforts to work with teachers, administrators, and their fellow students, the PRIS Student Government Association identified a need in both their school and our community and brought it to the Council. We are so proud to see all of the recent accomplishments of students from across the Town of Pike Road and how well they represent our community. The achievements of our baseball and track athletes are just two more of the many examples – congratulations, students, on your statewide recognition! We are thankful for the opportunities available to our community’s youth through Pike Road Schools, and we can’t wait to congratulate the Class of 2021 as they receive their diplomas in just a few weeks. As summertime quickly approaches, graduation isn’t the only thing to celebrate in the Town of Pike Road. We appreciate each of our citizens’ continued efforts to safely engage and support one another, all while making smart, safe decisions that help us build confidence and experience more flexibility with regards to COVID-19 as we move forward. We look forward to all this season will offer as we continue to make progress in the fight against COVID-19!

As a reminder, the current Safer Apart Order for Alabama means that masks are no longer mandated, but we all have the opportunity and responsibility to help keep our community healthy. Please recognize the value of continuing to protect yourselves and others , and exercise personal responsibility. There may still be times when it is appropriate to practice 6-foot social distancing, avoid the risks of crowds, and wear a face mask, especially in public spaces or around those outside of your household. Washing your hands thoroughly and frequently is always a good idea! The Town no longer requires face masks in municipal buildings, but we ask visitors to remain safety-conscious, and face masks will be available upon request. In addition, we encourage all of our residents to honor the requests of individual businesses and organizations throughout Pike Road as relates to COVID-19 practices and precautions. Thank you for your diligence and understanding.

Through the dedicated work of ADPH, the EMA, and all of our healthcare providers, we continue to see expanding opportunities to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Based on guidance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the CDC, Governor Ivey announced yesterday, May 13, that individuals ages 12+ are now eligible to receive the vaccine. Click here to learn more from ADPH and find a vaccine near you.

No matter what your interests are, we hope you will find opportunities to explore them through the upcoming variety of ENHANCE initiative activities. Last week, the Pike Road Arts Council hosted a successful 5x7 Art Show & Sale, engaging dozens of artists and numerous community visitors. The P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team collaborated to connect with the community on the National Day of Prayer, visiting all three Pike Road Schools campuses. The Ag & Stewardship Club has two opportunities on the horizon: On May 21, tackle Fire Ant Management with experts from the Alabama Cooperative Extension System in the morning, and in the afternoon, create and take home a masterpiece with the Container Gardening Workshop. To wrap up the month, we invite you to join the conversation as the Mondays with the Mayor monthly radio program broadcasts from Cara’s Trattoria, a new restaurant in Pike Road Station, on May 24. Visit us online at www.pikeroad.us to learn about these events and more, and don’t forget to register for our weekly e-newsletter!

“Pike Road, we are so appreciative of the way you engage in our community, from ENHANCE initiative activities to supporting local businesses and helping out neighbors in need. The 2021 Spring Cleanup is just one illustration of this: We had 18 groups participate, 14 miles of roadways covered, and 114 bags of litter picked up from our community. Thank you for showing your Pike Road pride and community spirit through this beautification initiative! This week, we were also pleased to join members of the P.R.A.Y.E.R. (Pike Road Area Your Emergency Response) Team in recognition of the National Day of Prayer. Faith leaders representing eight of our local churches visited each Pike Road Schools campus to offer a moment of prayer for our community, our nation, and our schools. What a special way to give thanks for our many blessings! In addition, we want to thank our partners and neighbors for working together and helping one another following this week’s strong storms. This collaborative effort was a true show of community spirit. We appreciate your continued efforts to safely engage and support one another, all while making smart, safe decisions that help us build confidence and experience more flexibility with regards to COVID-19 as we move forward.

The current Safer Apart Order for Alabama means that masks are no longer mandated, but we all have the opportunity and responsibility to help keep our community healthy.

“Thank you, Pike Road, for your energy and engagement in our community. So far this month, we have seen a fantastic response to our Spring Cleanup, with community volunteers of all ages getting outside and helping pick up litter. Your efforts make a difference, and they help prepare our beautiful hometown for this active season of outdoor recreation. As we move forward, we encourage you to stay up-to-date on community events and continue to safely engage in the Pike Road community! Tune in to the Mondays with the Mayor show this Monday, Apr. 19, to hear about everything that’s happening. We also want to say a special “thank you” to our military families, who make up an important part of the Pike Road and River Region communities. April is the Month of the Military Child, an annual opportunity for us all to recognize and honor the sacrifices and bravery shown every day by the families of our nation’s military men and women. We appreciate you.

The current Safer Apart Order means that masks are no longer mandated, but we encourage you to remember Governor Ivey's request that people practice personal responsibility. We all have the opportunity and responsibility to make smart, responsible decisions that help keep our community healthy.

“It is with great joy that we wish you and your families a happy Easter weekend. What a blessing it is to live in a country where we can worship and celebrate the things that mean so much to each of us. We are so thankful for the ongoing efforts of our local churches and centers of worship for all they have done to care for our community throughout the challenges of COVID-19 and to provide safe opportunities to worship together. We also want to say thank you, Pike Road, for all you do to support one another and help us progress toward the time when all is back to normal. As we continue to make progress in the fight against COVID-19, we look forward to continued opportunities to enjoy and engage with our community.

Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect yourself, your family, and all of our neighbors, and the current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through March 5.

Thank you, Pike Road, for your engagement in the variety of community activities presented through our ENHANCE initiative. As we wrap up several opportunities to connect and learn, we look forward to all that is coming our way. Today, we had a great group join the virtual Alabama Native Trees Ag & Stewardship Workshop, and we are excited to continue celebrating Alabama Arbor Week with a Seedling Giveaway beginning Mar. 2. This weekend is the last chance to enjoy the Pike Road Arts Council’s Cloudscapes Art Show by appointment at the Pike Road Arts Center, but the PRAC will soon begin accepting work for their spring show, It Isn’t Easy Being Green. Businessmen and women from across our community are invited to register now for the first Lunch & Learn of 2021, Virtual Manners Matter. This webinar, presented on Mar. 5 in partnership with Troy University Continuing Outreach & Education, will offer guidance for professionalism and efficiency in our virtual world and the opportunity to meet and learn alongside our neighbors. Visit us online at www.pikeroad.us to learn about these events and more.

As a reminder, due to the ongoing COVID-19 challenge, Town facilities remain closed to public visitors. We want to emphasize that we continue to be ready and available to serve you, and our team is accessible via phone and email. You can also find a variety of municipal resources on our website, www.pikeroad.us. We look forward to serving you!

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Thank you for all you do: Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“Throughout the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been blessed to work with outstanding partners whose dedication ensures that our daily lives were affected as little as possible. For their hard work and commitment, we want to say thank you. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office team, our local volunteer fire departments, and all of our first responders continue to serve with efficiency and care, often at their own risk. AmWaste, our sanitation service partner, adapted to the needs of our community as we spent more time at home. Our utility providers continue to ensure we receive excellent service amid the challenges of both the pandemic and winter weather. Our local businesses continue to find innovative ways to safely serve the community, and partners like the Alabama Cooperative Extension System have worked with us to continue providing virtual ENHANCE initiative quality of life programming for everyone. Not to mention, the leadership, teachers, and staff of Pike Road Schools have innovated and adapted to ensure every child has the opportunity to learn safely throughout this time. Thank you for all you do, and thank you, Pike Road, for your support and engagement.

As we move forward, we are excited to see access to the COVID-19 vaccine continue to expand, but it is important to recognize that the pandemic is an ongoing challenge. In order to continue to make progress, we must pay attention to the simple safety steps we know can help keep our community safe. Please continue to practice 6-foot social distancing, frequent and thorough handwashing, and avoiding crowd situations. It is also so important to have a face mask available to wear in public spaces and around those outside of your household. Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect yourself, your family, and all of our neighbors, and the current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through March 5.

Visit us online to register now for the Feb. 26 Ag & Stewardship Seminar, AL Native Trees for Your Yard, and stay tuned for details about our annual Seedling Giveaway. Then, don’t miss the Pike Road Arts Council’s Cloudscapes Art Show, which wraps up on Feb. 28. This virtual show is available on our website, as well as by appointment at the Pike Road Arts Center.

“Today, we want to say a special “Thank You” to the Montgomery City/County Emergency Management Agency, Baptist Health, Montgomery County, the City of Montgomery, ADPH, and so many more organizations and individuals who worked together to administer over 8,000 COVID-19 vaccinations during this week’s clinic. We are so appreciative of these efforts, which help protect the health of the greater Montgomery County community and help us move forward through the COVID-19 challenge.

As we continue into the spring, we are excited to see expanding access to the COVID-19 vaccine, and we appreciate your engagement and patience during this process.

“Thank you, Pike Road, for the way you continue to safely engage and support one another. We are excited by the opportunities the coming spring season will offer, and your involvement makes it all possible. February is Black History Month, and we encourage you to explore the history that surrounds us in the River Region. From visiting the Mural Wall to learn about local history – including the contributions of Ms. Georgia Washington – to taking a virtual tour of the Rosa Parks Museum at Troy University, there are many resources available in our area to learn about the individuals and events that helped move us toward the lives we enjoy today.

We are thankful that access to the COVID-19 vaccine continues to expand, and we appreciate your patience as local health providers work with Alabama Public Health to administer these vaccines. In the meantime, we encourage you to please continue to take the simple precautions that we know can help keep our community safe. Social distancing, frequent and thorough handwashing, and avoiding crowd situations are very important. In addition, the current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through March 5. It is important to have a face mask available to wear in public spaces and around those outside of your household. Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect yourself, your family, and all of our neighbors.

Although our quality of life programming through the ENHANCE initiative remains mostly virtual, there are a variety of activities on the horizon! Through Feb. 12, we encourage you to participate in our annual Valentines for Veterans Card Drive. Show your appreciation for our local veterans by dropping off a handmade or store-bought card with a kind note at Town Hall or Founders Station all week. You can also print a card from www.pikeroad.us, or personalize the cards available outside of these locations. Alabama Arbor Week is just around the corner, and our Ag & Stewardship Club is celebrating with a Native Trees seminar on Feb. 16 – visit www.pikeroad.us to register! Among other activities, the Pike Road Arts Council’s Cloudscapes Art Show continues to be available on our website, as well as by appointment at the Pike Road Arts Center.

January 29, 2021: A Note from Mayor Gordon Stone
Click here to view this update as a PDF.

"This week, Governor Kay Ivey and Dr. Scott Harris announced updates to the Safer at Home order, extending all requirements and guidelines through March 5, 2021. Thank you, Pike Road, for the safe, smart approach you have utilized throughout the ongoing COVID-19 challenge and allow the Safer at Home extension to serve as a reminder of the importance of these precautions. As communities across the country continue the vaccination process, it is still vitally important that we protect the health of ourselves and our neighbors until this process is completed. In order to continue enjoying the activities we love, we encourage everyone to remain dedicated to health and safety.

There are several simple precautions we know can make a difference. Please pay attention to social distancing, and maintain a 6-foot distance from those outside of your household. Practicing frequent and thorough handwashing and sanitation of high-traffic surfaces helps keep everyone healthy. Crowds and large gatherings pose a particular risk of the spread of COVID-19. Please avoid these situations whenever possible. In addition, it is vital to have a face mask available to wear in public and around those outside of your household. Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect both yourself and others. The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through March 5.

We look forward to safely engaging with you in a variety of ENHANCE initiative activities. Register now for the virtual Jan. 29 Happy Hostas Ag & Stewardship Workshop, and visit us online to explore the Arts Council’s Cloudscapes Art Show, which continues through Feb. 28. In addition, we invite you to join us in sharing our appreciation for our nation’s veterans, whose selfless service and sacrifice have allowed us to enjoy the freedoms we love and experiences like this week’s Inauguration. Drop off Valentine’s cards with a kind note for our local veterans at Town Hall and Founders Station beginning Monday, Jan. 25!

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 challenge, Town facilities will remain closed to public visitors. We want to emphasize that we continue to be ready and available to serve you, and our team is accessible via phone and email. You can also find a variety of municipal resources on our website, www.pikeroad.us. We look forward to serving you!

“This week, Governor Ivey and Dr. Harris updated the Safer At Home order, extending the statewide mask requirement and other health guidelines through December 11, 2020. As we approach the holiday season, we encourage you to please continue being safe and making smart decisions. Through your commitment to health and safety, we continue to make progress, build confidence in our community, and enjoy all the opportunities that this active season offers.

As a reminder, there are four simple principles that help combat the spread of COVID-19 in our community. Please maintain a six-foot social distance from others whenever possible. Wash your hands and sanitize your environment thoroughly and frequently. Be aware of the risks of large crowds, and please keep a mask handy to wear in public. Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect both yourself and others, and the current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Dec. 11. Thank you for continuing to safely support one another.

We are thankful for the opportunity to provide many of our traditional fall activities through innovative methods, and we appreciate your energy and engagement. Specifically, we are pleased to present the 9th Annual Veterans Appreciation Ceremony virtually this Sunday, Nov. 8, at 2 p.m. We invite and encourage you to tune in to this video presentation on www.pikeroad.us or our social media outlets. The virtual program will include the dedication of newly-installed, personalized bricks honoring veterans in the Pike Road Veteran’s Memorial, as well as other significant aspects of the traditional Veterans Appreciation Ceremony. Pike Road Schools students will lead the Pledge of Allegiance and sing the National Anthem, and distinguished guest speaker Colonel Jerime Reid, Vice Commander of the 42nd Air Base Wing, Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, will present remarks.

The virtual Veterans Appreciation Ceremony will continue to be available online throughout the week. In addition, our digital library of veterans’ stories, contributed by our citizens, will be available on www.pikeroad.us. We encourage you to explore this personal recognition, and encourage you to share stories or photos of veterans you know and love by emailing info@pikeroad.us. The Veterans Appreciation program is just one of many activities presented this fall by our ENHANCE initiative committees. We encourage you to visit us online to learn about all the great things happening in our hometown and how you can safely participate.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“As we wrap up the month of October, there is so much to celebrate in the Town of Pike Road. This fall, we have explored safe, new ways to enjoy traditional events like Hay, Look at Us!, Founders Week, and the Plein Air Paint Out. We have completed the 2019-2020 fiscal year with 20 percent reserves and an AA+ bond rating. With all of this in mind, we want to share our heartfelt appreciation for each of you. Your support and engagement make all these things possible.

Throughout the COVID-19 challenge, we have had to be innovative, reevaluating events and activities and learning together as we find safer ways to enjoy the things that mean so much to us. Thank you for your dedication to being safe, making smart choices, and building confidence as we move forward. As a reminder, there are four principles that we must continue to practice this season. Please maintain a six-foot distance from others whenever possible. Wash your hands and sanitize your environment frequently. Be aware of the risks of large crowds, and keep a mask handy to wear in public. The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Nov. 8. Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect both yourself and others. Thank you for continuing to safely support one another.

Speaking of masks, tomorrow, Oct. 31, is Halloween. For those who choose to celebrate this holiday, it often means dressing up in costumes and trick-or-treating from door to door. This year, with the ongoing COVID-19 challenge in mind, the CDC and ADPH have recommended that families find safer alternatives to traditional trick-or-treating. Click here to access the ADPH guidance, and please be smart and stay safe this weekend!

We are thankful for the opportunity to provide many of our traditional fall activities through innovative methods, and we appreciate your energy and engagement. Many of our ENHANCE initiative activities are ongoing, including the Hay, Look at Us! hay bale decorating contest, and Plein Air Paint Out. Visit us on Facebook to view all 46 hay bales and access a driving map to take a tour of the 2020 Hay, Look at Us! creations through Nov. 8. You can also view the incredible works of the Plein Air Painters throughout the month of November, vote for your favorite pieces, and learn how you can bring one into your home.

In addition, we want to remind you that this year’s Veterans Appreciation Ceremony will be held virtually at 2 p.m. on November 8. As we prepare to honor our nation’s veterans, we invite and encourage you to visit www.pikeroad.us to share photos and stories of the veterans you know and love. This will be a special part of our Veterans Appreciation efforts, to be included in our virtual program and in our digital library, created to recognize, honor and remember the servicemen and women who have sacrificed so much on our behalf. The virtual Veterans Appreciation Ceremony will be accessible through our Facebook page and website on Nov. 8.

The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Nov. 8, so the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate with limited access to our municipal facilities through Nov. 8. We are committed to safely serving our community, so please know that our team is always available to help you via phone and email. You can also find a variety of municipal resources on our website, www.pikeroad.us. We look forward to serving you!

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“Tomorrow, Oct. 24, the Town of Pike Road will officially turn 23! As one of the youngest towns in Alabama, we are uniquely positioned to remember the history that helped us get here while celebrating the exceptional progress we have made in just over two decades of incorporation! Thank you, Pike Road, for your engagement and enthusiasm, which have helped us maintain the character of our community and continue to contribute to the Welcome Home spirit that has always made the Pike Road area such a special place to call home. Earlier this week, we kicked off our 2020 Founders Week celebrations with the Community Connection Challenge, which is all about safely connecting with one another and the history of our hometown. If you have not already, we encourage you to visit us online and get involved: You can participate in everything from supporting local businesses and the Pike Road Patriots to contributing to our Veterans Appreciation initiatives through Oct. 28. Your participation is your key to safe, family-friendly fun, and prizes like gift cards from our Pike Road businesses.

As we enjoy all that Founders Week and the fall season have to offer in the Town of Pike Road and beyond, we encourage you to remain cognizant of the health and safety guidelines. The COVID-19 challenge continues, and it is important that we remain dedicated to the four simple things we can do help keep ourselves and our community safe and healthy. Please maintain a six-foot distance from others whenever possible. Wash your hands and sanitize your environment frequently. Be aware of the risks of large crowds, and keep a mask handy to wear in public. The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Nov. 8. Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect both yourself and others. Thank you for continuing to safely support one another. Your actions help build confidence as we move forward.

We are thankful for the opportunity to provide many of our traditional fall activities through innovative methods, and we appreciate your energy and engagement. This fall, we have had a record number of participants in many of our ENHANCE initiative activities, like the Hay, Look at Us! hay bale decorating contest, Plein Air Paint Out, and virtual Ag & Stewardship workshops. This weekend, take advantage of these ongoing activities by taking a driving tour of the 46 Hay, Look at Us! creations, voting for your favorite to win the People’s Choice Award on our Facebook page, and checking out the 2020 Plein Air Paint Out’s original works through a virtual art show beginning tomorrow, Oct. 24. Through the virtual art show, you can vote for your three favorite paintings to win the Plein Air People’s Choice Award.

We also want to share our gratitude for the many citizens who took the time to donate blood yesterday, Oct. 22, during our Community Blood Drive in partnership with LifeSouth. Your donations stay local and save lives! These activities are all part of the Founders Week Community Challenge, so don’t forget to download a Challenge Card and earn points while you’re at it.

“It is an exciting time in the Town of Pike Road, and we appreciate your efforts to be safe and smart as we enjoy all this season has to offer. This week, the Town of Pike Road will celebrate 23 years since incorporation. As we look around Town, we are reminded of our many blessings and all that has happened in the past two decades. From the record number of Hay, Look at Us! hay bales to the incredible group of plein air artists here to paint the scenery of our beautiful hometown, and to the opportunities abounding at Pike Road Schools, we have so much to be thankful for. We appreciate all the folks who help make this possible. Thank you, Pike Road, for all you do to embody the spirit of Welcome Home, even during this uniquely challenging time.

We encourage you to remain cognizant of the health and safety guidelines. Please remain dedicated to the four simple things we can do to be safe and still enjoy this incredible season in our special hometown. These important principles remain the same. Please maintain a six-foot distance from others whenever possible. Wash your hands and sanitize your environment frequently. Be aware of the risks of large crowds, and keep a mask handy to wear in public. The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Nov. 8. Wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect both yourself and others. Thank you for continuing to safely support one another. Your actions help build confidence as we move forward.

We are thankful for the opportunity to provide many of our traditional fall activities through innovative methods, and we appreciate your energy and engagement.

Our Connection Challenge is available now at www.pikeroad.us, and it’s all about engaging with the history of Pike Road, as well as the great things happening now. Don’t miss our Mondays with the Mayor radio show. It will be on Monday, Oct. 19. Then, give back on Oct. 22 through the Community Blood Drive, hosted at Town Hall in partnership with LifeSouth.

We want to provide a special reminder of our annual Veterans Appreciation Ceremony and Community Cookbook program. This year, the Veterans Appreciation Ceremony will be held virtually on November 8.

“As we continue into the fall, weather from the tropics will continue to occasionally impact our area. Please keep this in mind, and stay in-the-know about current and predicted conditions as you plan your weekend activities. In addition, the Safer at Home Order and statewide mask requirement continue through November 8. We appreciate all you have done to be safe, make smart choices, and build confidence throughout this challenging time. We encourage you to remain cognizant of the health and safety climate, as well as to remain dedicated to the four simple things we can do to build on the progress we have made so far.

As a reminder, please maintain a six-foot distance from others as you enjoy the activities this season has to offer. Wash your hands and sanitize your environment frequently and be aware of the risks of large crowds. The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Nov. 8, and wearing a face covering or mask is an easy way to help protect both yourself and others. Thank you for continuing to safely support one another. We also appreciate your effort in supporting our local businesses. Your actions help build confidence as we move forward.

This is a special season in the Town of Pike Road, and we are thankful for the opportunity to provide many of our traditional fall activities through innovative and virtual methods. One very important annual event is our Veterans Appreciation Ceremony, to be held virtually on November 8. As we prepare to honor our nation’s veterans, we invite and encourage you to visit www.pikeroad.us to share photos and stories of the veterans you know and love. These will be included in our virtual library, created to recognize, honor and remember the servicemen and women who have sacrificed so much on our behalf. In addition, we invite you to share your family’s favorite fall memories, recipes, and traditions as part of our Fall 2020 Memories & Meals Community Cookbook.

The next few weeks are busy ones, and we don’t want you to miss a thing. The 9th Annual Plein Air Paint Out will bring artists from across the country to Pike Road on Oct. 16 – 17. Much of this weekend will be presented virtually, but the community is still welcome to visit with artists that are painting around town – just remember to keep a 6-foot distance and wear your mask! Then, we will celebrate Founders Week and the Town’s 23rd birthday with a week of activities. Join the conversation during the Oct. 19 Mondays with the Mayor Radio Show, give back by giving blood on Oct. 22, and learn how to raise and utilize various herbs through the Oct. 23 Ag & Stewardship workshop. Also during Founders Week, Hay Look at Us! entries will be judged, and we’ll share a driving map so that you can enjoy all 46 hay bales.

One last reminder: The deadline to participate in the 2020 Census has been extended through Oct. 31. If you have not already filled out your census, please visit my2020census.gov to do so today! Pike Road has done a great job so far, but it is so important that every household be counted. The 2020 Census has 10 questions, it takes about 6 minutes to complete, and it can affect billions in funding for Alabama.

Since the current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Nov. 8, the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate with limited access to our municipal facilities through Nov. 8. We are committed to safely serving our community, so please know that our team is always available to help you via phone and email, and you can find a variety of municipal resources on our website, www.pikeroad.us.

“Fall fun is in full swing in the Town of Pike Road, and we’re excited to celebrate the season with you. Please remember that, this week, Governor Ivey and the Alabama Department of Public Health announced the extension of the Safer at Home order through November 8, 2020. We hope this will remind you that, while we enjoy all the fall has to offer, COVID-19 continues to challenge our community and our state. It is so important that we continue making smart decisions, which will help keep our community safe and help us move forward together.

Please continue to utilize trusted resources like the CDC and Alabama Public Health for safety recommendations and guidelines. Maintain a six-foot distance from others, wash your hands and sanitize your environment frequently, and be aware of the risks of large crowds. The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Nov. 8, and wearing a face covering or mask is a simple way to help protect both yourself and others. Thank you for continuing to safely support one another. We also appreciate your effort in supporting our local businesses. Your actions help build confidence as we move forward.

Today, Pike Road Schools celebrates Homecoming, and we are reminded to be thankful for all we have. To the people who dedicated their time and energy to making Pike Road Schools a reality, and to the teachers, administrators, and community supporters, we say thank you to you all. We especially appreciate that you continue to make educational opportunities available to our community’s youth. Go Patriots!

Last week’s Lunch & Learn and Ag & Stewardship workshop are just a couple of this fall’s wonderful activities. As we prepare to honor our nation’s veterans in November, we encourage you to visit www.pikeroad.us to learn how you can recognize a veteran you know and love by sharing photos and stories. These will be included in our virtual library, created to honor and remember the servicemen and women who have sacrificed so much on our behalf. In addition, we invite you to share your family’s favorite fall memories, recipes, and traditions as part of our Fall 2020 Memories & Meals Community Cookbook. Don’t forget to take a look at the Pike Road Quilters’ Virtual Quilt Show, either – it continues through this weekend, Oct. 4. To learn how you can safely participate in these community-building activities, visit us online at www.pikeroad.us!

The deadline to participate in the 2020 Census has been extended through Oct. 5. If you have not already filled out your census, please visit my2020census.gov to do so today! Pike Road has done a great job so far, but it is so important that every household be counted. Every ten years, the census is used to determine Congressional representation and set standards of federal funding for schools. The Census assists with healthcare, access to grants for community programming, and infrastructure projects across the nation. The 2020 Census has 10 questions, and it takes about 6 minutes to complete. Remember, it can affect billions in funding for Alabama.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

In just under a week, we will also reach another very important date. September 30 is the last day to participate in the 2020 Census. If you have not already filled out your census, please visit my2020census.gov to do so today! Pike Road has done a great job so far, but it is so important that every household be counted. Every ten years, the census is used to determine congressional representation and set standards of federal funding for schools. The Census assists with healthcare, access to grants for community programming, and infrastructure projects across the nation. The 2020 Census has 10 questions, and it takes about 6 minutes to complete. Remember, it can affect billions in funding for Alabama.

The current Safer at Home order and statewide mask requirement continue through Oct. 2. Based on the current safety guidelines, the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate with limited access to our municipal facilities through October 2. We are committed to safely serving our community, so please know that our team is always available to help you via phone and email, and you can find a variety of municipal resources on our website, www.pikeroad.us.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“This week, the threat of inclement weather added another element to the ongoing challenges faced by our state and our community. Thank you, Pike Road, for staying weather-aware, making smart choices, and working together to support one another. We are so thankful for everyone who continues to serve on the frontlines, from first responders to the Montgomery County Emergency Management Agency, dedicated service providers and the Town of Pike Road team.

Fall activities are upon us, and we encourage you to continue to make smart, safe decisions that build confidence and allow us to enjoy all this season has to offer. Please continue to follow the safety recommendations from the CDC and Alabama Public Health. Help keep our community safe by maintaining a six-foot social distance whenever possible, washing your hands and sanitizing your environment frequently, and avoiding the risks of large crowds. In this active time, it is so important to continue to wear face coverings or masks that cover your mouth and nose in public spaces to help protect both yourself and others.

Tomorrow, the Pike Road Quilters’ Virtual Quilt Show begins, and we hope you will visit us online to “meet” the quilters and enjoy the incredible art they have created.

“Today we want to say thank you, Pike Road, for all you continue to do to connect with your neighbors, support one another, and make smart, safe decisions that help us continue to make progress in the fight against COVID-19 in our community.

As a reminder, please continue to be smart and follow the safety recommendations from the CDC and Alabama Public Health. There are four main principles we encourage you to continue following to keep our community safe. Keep a six-foot social distance whenever possible, sanitize your environment and wash your hands frequently and thoroughly, and avoid the risks of large crowds help reduce the risk of catching or spreading the coronavirus. It is so important to continue to wear face coverings or masks that cover your mouth and nose in public spaces to help protect both yourself and others. These actions help us continue to make progress and build confidence in our community as we safely enjoy the active fall season.

With safety recommendations in mind, we are pleased to offer a blend of virtual and traditional ENHANCE initiative activities this fall. Beginning today, Sept. 11, you can register your neighborhood, business, or organization for the annual Hay, Look at Us! Hay Bale Decorating Competition. We encourage you to safely participate in this fall-favorite activity, which brings so much joy to our community and our neighbors across the River Region. Find registration details on our website, www.pikeroad.us.

We are also humbled to invite you to join us as we honor our nation’s veterans. There are two weeks left to order a commemorative brick paver to honor a veteran you know and love. Order forms are available at www.pikeroad.us, and bricks ordered by Sept. 25 will be dedicated and installed in the Pike Road Veterans Memorial Walk of Honor this fall. We also invite veterans, friends and families to share photos, videos, stories and related memories with us through Oct. 30 as part of a new virtual library that will be shared with the community in honor and remembrance.

Register now for the Sept. 24 virtual Lunch & Learn, and join the Pike Road Business Association for an entertaining and educational look at tackling generational differences in the workplace. On Sept. 25, the Ag & Stewardship Club will present a virtual Home Fermentation Workshop! Participants will have the opportunity to pick up the necessary materials from our Community Development team to follow along and can vegetables from home. Registration and details are available on our website, www.pikeroad.us.

On this meaningful day in the history of our nation, we encourage you to pause and remember the tragedy that struck our nation nineteen years ago. We remember those who simply went to work on the morning of September 11, and we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice that they may help their neighbors. We remember, and we renew our commitment to serving, caring for, and seeking to understand our neighbors, near and far. Thank you, Pike Road, for the care you show one another every day.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

August 28, 2020: Updates & Reminders from Mayor Stone

Please continue to be safe, smart and thoughtful as we enter the active fall season. Please see a few resources below from Governor Kay Ivey & the Alabama Department of Public Health.

August 28, 2020: A Note from Mayor Gordon Stone
Click here to view this update as a PDF.

“As we look toward the active fall season, please remember that, while we have made so much progress, there is still progress to be made. As you may know, earlier this week, Governor Ivey extended the Safer At Home order and mask requirement through October 2. Please continue to be intentional and make smart, safe decisions as we move forward through this challenge together.

We encourage you to remain committed to the same simple, safety ideas recommended by the CDC and ADPH. Continue to actively keep a six-foot social distance in public spaces, wash your hands frequently and for at least 20 seconds, and understand the risks of large crowds. Sanitizing high-traffic surfaces like doorknobs, steering wheels, counter tops, and phones also help reduce the risk of catching or spreading the coronavirus. Please continue to wear face coverings or masks that cover your mouth and nose in public spaces to help protect both yourself and others with whom you come in contact. Fall has so much to offer, from athletic events to holidays and other activities, and each of our actions affects the way we are able to enjoy this special season.

This fall, we are excited to present several traditional events and activities for our community as part of our ENHANCE initiative. Today, we had nearly 50 people participate in our virtual Fall Gardening Ag & Stewardship seminar, and there are many more great opportunities for you to get involved! Right now, we invite you to join us as we honor our nation’s veterans. Through September 25, you can honor a veteran you know and love by ordering a commemorative brick paver to be dedicated and installed in the Pike Road Veterans Memorial Walk of Honor. We also invite veterans, friends and families to share photos, videos, stories and related memories with us through Oct. 30 as part of a new virtual library that will be shared with the community in honor and remembrance.

On Sept. 24, the Pike Road Business Association will tackle generational differences in the workplace with humor and helpful tips during a virtual Lunch & Learn. Later this month, the Pike Road Arts Council will present a virtual quilt show featuring the handmade works of the Pike Road Quilters, and the annual Hay, Look at Us! Hay Bale Decorating Competition is just around the corner. So, be sure to remind your neighbors and coworkers about this fall-favorite opportunity to get creative and showcase the spirit of Pike Road.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

August 7, 2020: Updates & Reminders from Mayor Stone

August 7, 2020: A Note from Mayor Gordon Stone
Click here to view this update as a PDF.

“COVID-19 continues to challenge our community and our state, and we appreciate all you have done and are doing to help us make progress throughout this situation. Traditional fall activities and the start of school are quickly approaching, and it is important for us to remain dedicated to making smart choices and keeping our community safe as we move into this season. Following safety guidelines and recommendations from the CDC and ADPH help protect both our families and our neighbors, as well as the front-line workers. Thank you for continuing to serve our community. We appreciate your efforts.

These health and safety recommendations consistently include keeping a 6-foot social distance from others, avoiding group gatherings, washing your hands thoroughly and often, and sanitizing high-traffic surfaces like doorknobs, steering wheels, counter tops, and phones. The current Safer At Home order requires Alabamians to wear face coverings or masks in public places through August 31. Face masks and cloth face coverings, which should cover your mouth and nose, protect both you and others with whom you come in contact. It is important to remember that our actions can affect everyone we meet. Please continue to be thoughtful, cautious, and compassionate in your actions.

As summer comes to a close, so does the 2020 Census. The deadline to participate in the Census is quickly approaching, so if you have not already filled out your census, please visit my2020census.gov and do so today! Pike Road has done a great job so far, but it is so important that every household be counted. Every ten years, the census is used to determine congressional representation and set standards of federal funding for schools. The Census assists with healthcare, access to grants for community programming, and infrastructure projects across the nation. The 2020 Census has 10 questions, and it takes about 6 minutes to complete. Remember, it can affect $13 billion in funding for Alabama.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“This week, Governor Ivey extended the Safer At Home order and mask requirement through August 31. We hope this will serve both as a reminder that COVID-19 continues to challenge our community and our state and encouragement to continue to be safe and make smart choices. Throughout this ongoing situation, our community has embodied the neighborly “Welcome Home” spirit that makes the Town of Pike Road such a special place to call home, and we are so appreciative of how you continue to support each other. We ask and encourage you to fight the fatigue of social distancing, avoiding group gatherings, and staying home, and continue making intentional, thoughtful decisions that help keep our community safe while remaining connected. Following safety guidelines and recommendations from the CDC and ADPH help protect both our families and our neighbors, as well as the front-line workers who continue to serve our community, and we appreciate your efforts.

Health and safety recommendations continue to include social distancing, avoiding group gatherings, washing your hands thoroughly and often, and sanitizing high-traffic surfaces like doorknobs, steering wheels, counter tops, and phones. The current Safer At Home order requires Alabamians to wear face coverings or masks in public places. Face masks and cloth face coverings, which should cover your mouth and nose, protect both you and those you come in contact with, and it is important to remember that our actions affect the essential workers and healthcare professionals who continue to serve in our community. Please continue to be thoughtful, cautious, and compassionate in your actions.

Based on the updated Safer At Home order, the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate with limited access to our municipal facilities through August 31. Please know that our team is always available to help you via phone and email, and you can also find a variety of municipal resources on our website, pikeroad.us. If you have pressing business that requires an appointment, please do not hesitate to contact our team. We appreciate your understanding and utilization of digital methods as we continue to prioritize safety and access to municipal services.

As we move forward, we want to say thank you to the front-line workers who continue to ensure we have safe access to services and necessities throughout this process. Thank you to our local businesses, who continue to adapt to the coronavirus challenge, and thank you, Pike Road, for supporting them. Thank you to our churches and P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team for working to provide safe fellowship and worship opportunities, as well as providing resources for our neighbors in need. We also want to extend a special thank you to the leaders, administrators, teachers and staff of Pike Road Schools, who have been working all summer to prepare for a responsible start to the 2020-2021 school year. To learn about the upcoming school year, please visit www.pikeroadschools.org.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“From the very beginning of the ongoing COVID-19 challenge, we have been amazed by our community’s response. You have gone above and beyond to be smart, stay safe, and care for neighbors in need. We are so appreciative of all you do, and we strongly encourage you to continue to be thoughtful and intentional, following the guidance of the Alabama Department of Public Health as we move forward. This week, Governor Ivey announced a statewide mask ordinance that asks every Alabamian to wear a mask or cloth face covering in public spaces. This is one more step that we can all take to support each other and help stop the spread of COVID-19 in our community. Making smart, safe choices is the best way to move forward through this situation.

Please stay aware of CDC and ADPH recommendations and incorporate them into in your daily routine if you have not already. As a reminder, these continue to include actively social distancing, avoiding group gatherings, washing your hands thoroughly and often, and sanitizing high-traffic surfaces like doorknobs, steering wheels, counter tops, and phones. Face masks and cloth face coverings, which should cover your mouth and nose, protect both you and those you come in contact with, and it is important to remember that our actions affect the essential workers and healthcare professionals who continue to serve in our community. Please continue to be thoughtful, cautious, and compassionate in your actions.

We also want to take this opportunity to remind you that the 2020 Census is here! Every ten years, the census is used to distribute everything from congressional representation to federal funding for schools and healthcare, access to grants for community programming, and infrastructure projects across the nation. The 2020 Census has 10 questions, and it takes about 6 minutes to complete, but it can affect $13 billion in funding for Alabama. If you have not already filled out your census, please visit my2020census.gov and do so today.

It was a gift to see your Scavenger Hunt photos, and we hope you enjoyed the art activities and the songs of celebration in our virtual concert. These, along with the Community Cookbook, can be accessed by visiting www.pikeroad.us. Although these were not our traditional activities, you continue to amaze us and embody the spirit that makes the Town of Pike Road such a special place to call home. We have so much to be thankful for in this great country, and our community is one of those many blessings.

Thank you for continuing to be smart and safe as the summer continues. The COVID-19 challenge is present in Montgomery County and across Alabama, and each of us has a responsibility to help stop the spread. It continues to be vital to make thoughtful choices, recognize the risks of large gatherings, and practice social distancing. CDC and ADPH guidance also includes washing your hands frequently and sanitizing high-traffic surfaces like doorknobs, steering wheels, and countertops both at home and at your place of work. We also encourage you to recognize the importance of wearing masks and face coverings in public spaces or when around those who are not part of your household. Making smart, safe choices helps us progress through the ongoing COVID-19 challenge and builds confidence in our community, and we appreciate your efforts to do so.

The Town of Pike Road is not requiring face masks at this time, but we do strongly recommend that everyone wear a face mask in public places, such as grocery stores or businesses, and when interacting with those outside of their household. Face masks and cloth face coverings protect both you and those you come in contact with, and it is important to remember that our actions affect the essential workers and healthcare professionals who continue to serve in our community.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“Yesterday, Governor Ivey and the State Health Officer released updated guidelines and opportunities for reopening. As we continue through this next phase of reopening, we want to express our appreciation to our community for the ways you continue to support each other and remain smart, safe, and confident. As a reminder, this includes utilizing resources from trusted sources like the CDC, following guidelines from the Alabama Department of Public Health, recognizing the importance of social distancing, practicing good hygiene, and being respectful of the ways you can help protect yourself and your neighbors in this transition.

As we enter this holiday weekend and experience more opportunities to be out and about, we ask you to be cautious. Please understand the opportunities to help protect yourself, your family, and the greater community. The updated Safer At Home Order, issued on May 21, includes renewed access to leisure and entertainment activities such as movie theaters, athletics, and summer camps. Please explore the social distancing and capacity guidelines related to these activities. Consider having cloth face coverings and essential items like hand sanitizer available to use in public spaces, as well as the risks that are posed by large groups and crowds.

Today, we want to extend a special thank you in honor of the men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. We hope you will take some time this Memorial Day to honor and remember our nation’s fallen heroes. Their service and sacrifice in the name of freedom are not forgotten.

We also encourage you to bear in mind both those who have served and those who continue to serve and protect our communities in every capacity, from overseas action to helping combat the spread of the coronavirus at home. We are so thankful for everyone across our community and our nation who continues to put themselves at risk by going to work in essential businesses to ensure we have access to necessities like food, emergency services, and healthcare.

At this time, the Town of Pike Road will continue to operate with limited access to our municipal facilities. We encourage you to connect with our team via phone and email, and you can also find a variety of municipal resources on our website, pikeroad.us. If you have pressing business that requires an appointment, please do not hesitate to contact our team.

As always, we will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

“This week, communities across Alabama saw increased opportunities to frequent local businesses and restaurants. As we continue through this stage of reopening, we want to express our gratitude to our community for the ways you continue to thoughtfully connect with each other and remain smart, safe, and confident. It is important to remain aware of CDC and ADPH guidelines as you utilize opportunities to be out and about, whether you are returning to work, shopping at a local store, or frequenting your favorite restaurant. Please continue to recognize the importance of social distancing, practice good hygiene, and be respectful of the ways you can help protect yourself and your neighbors in this transition.

We want to say a special thank you to our local businesses for the precautions and procedures they are implementing to help keep employees and customers safe. Our gratitude also includes the frontline workers, from farmers to first responders, grocery store teams to healthcare workers, whose daily activities keep our families safe and food on our tables. Throughout this challenge, we have experienced a seamless continuation of service, and, due to the dedicated work of the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, our safety has not wavered. Today, Peace Officers Memorial Day, we are humbled to remember and honor the law enforcement officers who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the communities they served. We encourage you to take a moment to say thank you to a law enforcement officer and reflect on the selfless service that allows us to live the lives we do today.

On Monday, May 18, the Town of Pike Road team will implement plans to safely return to the office.

“As we continue to follow Governor Ivey’s Safer at Home Order, we appreciate all you continue to do to be smart, safe, and confident in this phase of the COVID-19 challenge. Under the Safer at Home Order, we are thankful to see you continuing to support local businesses. We appreciate your responsible, positive attitudes and willingness to follow the guidelines. The generous, supportive spirit of the Pike Road community has given new meaning to “welcome home.” We are grateful and humbled to see the displays of neighborly care and acts of service from our citizens each day. What you are doing makes a difference.

This week, we had the opportunity to participate in two special celebrations: Teacher Appreciation Day and the National Day of Prayer. Every year, Teacher Appreciation Day is celebrated with a show of support for all the Pike Road Schools team does for our community. In this time of distance learning, the flexibility, resilience and excellence of our teachers continues to shine through as they adjust to safety precautions while meeting the needs of each student. We are honored to take a moment to say thank you for all you do.

Yesterday, to celebrate the National Day of Prayer, we were excited to share words of encouragement and positive messages from several members of our P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team. In communities like ours, we know that people often turn to their churches in difficult times. The P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team, or Pike Road Area Your Emergency Response Team, was formed as part of the ENHANCE Initiative to connect faith leaders from across Pike Road. It is their goal to help ensure we are able to support the physical and spiritual needs of our community in difficult times. We are so thankful for all that our churches continue to do to support the Pike Road community during this ongoing COVID-19 situation. From providing childcare support for healthcare workers to providing and delivering meals for our food-insecure neighbors, the P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team makes a difference. Click here to view the video and learn more about the P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team!

Thank you for your continued confidence in our community and our Town. We have seen a great response from each of you as you continue to connect with the Town of Pike Road team. As we continue to operate remotely, at least through May 15, we want to emphasize that our team is here to help. We are available via phone and email, and we are here to serve you. We encourage you to access the resources available on our website, pikeroad.us, and to continue to connect with us regarding your municipal needs.

To make sure that we are aware of all opportunities and any necessary action is being taken, we remain actively involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions. Further, we are engaged with community leaders, schools, churches, and service organizations to ensure we continue to meet the needs of our Town. As a reminder, we will continue to monitor recommendations from the Alabama Department of Public Health and Governor Ivey as it relates to COVID-19. We will share any updates on pikeroad.us.

We will continue to pray for you, and we encourage you to pray for each other. Together, we will come through this.

Thank you and God Bless.”

“As we move forward through this COVID-19 challenge, we are humbled to see the many expressions of love that our citizens are showing to their neighbors. From supporting local businesses to writing messages in driveways with chalk, it is a testimony to the spirit of Pike Road. We continue to be amazed by our educators, health care providers, food system employees, essential service partners and first responders. Thank you for your dedication and commitment. Thank you all for following the guidelines of Governor Kay Ivey’s Stay at Home Order. As we move through the weeks ahead, we will keep you informed of any changes that may occur. We appreciate how our community continues to be smart, stay safe and show confidence.

This week, we want to share a reminder from our P.R.A.Y.E.R. Team, which is made up of faith leaders across our community. In this time of physical isolation, it is more important than ever to check on our neighbors, friends and family. We encourage you to give them a call, send them a text, or even mail them a note. A friendly voice or kind word is an easy way to bring joy to others.

I am so proud of our Town of Pike Road team. They are continuing to perform the work that is important for our town and are making sure that we are serving our citizens. Even though the team is almost exclusively working from home, our emails, phone calls and mail services continue to be available.

To make sure that we are aware of all opportunities and any necessary action is being taken, we remain actively involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions. Further, we are engaged with community leaders, schools, churches, and service organizations to ensure we continue to meet the needs of our community. As a reminder, we will continue to follow recommendations from the Alabama Department of Public Health and Governor Ivey as it relates to COVID-19. We will share any updates on pikeroad.us.

With prayer and faith as our guide, we will come through this together.

Thank you and God Bless.”

As we continue life in this time of the COVID-19 challenge, we are grateful for so many things. Our community continues to be smart, stay safe and show confidence. We appreciate you all following the guidelines of Governor Kay Ivey’s Stay at Home Order. Individuals, organizations and businesses continue to connect, serve, and support each other in innovative ways.

We want to thank you for being confident, and we are so appreciative for all the people who build our confidence every day. Through the dedication of our service providers and first responders, our healthcare workers, and the front-line workers, like those providing our food supply from our farmers to our grocery stores, our community continues to receive essential services without interruption. Our local churches continue to find ways for us to worship, and our educators, from our local schools to our universities, continue to make a difference in young peoples’ lives. We encourage you to continue to support our local businesses, connect virtually with friends and family, and participate in the Ribbons of Hope campaign – it is amazing to see bows on mailboxes and doors across the Town of Pike Road!

As a reminder, the 2020 Census is here! Every ten years, the census is used to distribute everything from congressional representation to federal funding for schools and healthcare, access to grants for community programming, and infrastructure projects across the nation. An accurate census count helps ensure our community and our state receive these resources, which help us grow in ways that support every Alabamian. The 2020 Census has 10 questions, and it takes about 6 minutes to complete, but it can affect $13 billion in funding for Alabama. If you have not already filled out your census, we encourage you to visit my2020census.gov and do so today.

Our team continues to operate almost exclusively from home, and our business continuity plan allows us to continue to serve our citizens. Our emails, phone calls and mail services continue to be available. We remain actively involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions, and we are engaged with community leaders, churches, and service organizations to ensure we continue to meet all the needs of our community. With prayer and faith as our guide, we will come through this together.

Thank you and God Bless.

This week marks the first under Governor Kay Ivey’s Stay at Home Order. We are so grateful to see our community following these guidelines in an effort protect each other and show our appreciation for everyone on the front lines of this challenge. This week, our message is one of encouragement: This is a difficult time, but we will get through it together.

Under the Stay at Home Order, our team is operating almost exclusively from home. We have implemented business continuity plans that allow us to continue to serve our citizens. Note that our emails, phone calls and mail services will continue to be available. We remain actively involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions, and we are engaged with community leaders, churches, and service organizations to ensure we continue to meet all the needs of our community.

In this time of uncertainty, the Town of Pike Road is humbled to celebrate and show our appreciation for the front-line workers whose dedicated efforts continue to essential services. Hopefully, you have seen our signs around Town. Plus, we are taking in Governor Ivey’s Ribbons of Hope campaign, tying bows on our municipal buildings to symbolize hope, love and togetherness in the fight against COVID-19. This Holy Week, we encourage you to do the same – using whatever you have at home, tie a ribbon around a tree, light post, or mailbox in your yard! Essential workers from utility providers to first responders, grocery store teams to the transportation industry, and, of course, everyone in the healthcare profession, continue to work each day to ensure our basic needs are met, and we thank you all. Members of the Pike Road Town Council have also offered words of encouragement to our community, and we are excited to share those with you on our social media.

Thank you to our community for helping us express our love for Pike Road by completing the 2020 Census. This count helps us with our abilities to compete for grants, receive program funding, and do other things that are going to strengthen our community. If you have not already filled out your census, we encourage you to visit census.alabama.gov and do so today.

We also want to say thank you to those who are finding innovative ways to lead virtual worship opportunities in this Holy Week. It is a very special time for our family, and I know it is a special time for many of our citizens. We will continue to be prayerful for our community, for our friends and our family members, and we want to encourage you to do the same. We hope you have a safe and joyful Easter, and we hope you will continue be safe, be smart about what you do, and be confident that, together, we’ll come through this.

Pike Road is a special place, and, working together, we’ll continue to make it a great hometown.

Thank you and God Bless,

Mayor Stone

April 3, 2020: A Note from Mayor Gordon Stone

This afternoon, Governor Kay Ivey announced a Stay at Home Order that is effective Saturday, April 4, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. and extends through April 30, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. We recognize the serious consideration that goes into the decision to move forward with this order. Consequently, we understand the desire for all of us to comply and the fact that this order is enforceable by our law enforcement community. The specific details of the order are being defined by both the Alabama Department of Public Health and the Alabama Attorney General's Office. However, it is clear that the order requires for us to stay at home unless the action that we are taking is defined as essential.

We will continue to operate at the Town of Pike Road; however, our employees will be operating almost exclusively from home. Emails, phone calls and mail services will continue to be available to our citizens, and our communications to citizens will also continue. We remain actively involved in all EMA, state and federal discussions as needed. All of the Town’s facilities that were closed until April 12 will now be closed until April 30. While respecting and adhering to the Stay at Home Order, we will continue to assist in maintaining as much normalcy as possible.

In the Town of Pike Road, we are fortunate and blessed that all of our service providers are prepared to continue operations. Our first responders will still be actively engaged in serving the community. Our Pike Road School System has a plan for virtual/distance operations, and our churches are continuing to serve the community through virtual means. Local businesses will continue to serve, and we are encouraged to find creative ways to support them.

The primary purpose of this serious action is to address the issues of health. Keeping each of us, our families, friends and other people in our lives as healthy as possible is the main idea. We ask each and every resident of the Town of Pike Road to recognize the seriousness of the action. The order reinforces the responsibility for all of us to be smart (Trust updates and information from the CDC and ADPH), be safe (Stay at Home, practice social distancing and good hygiene) and be confident (As we walk this path in prayer and faith, we will find strength and support to overcome the challenge.).

As this challenge continues to evolve, we are reminded of the foundations our hometown community was built on: A hospitable community that cares for its neighbors and embodies the “Welcome Home” spirit. Today, we ask you to continue to follow social distancing guidelines, but also to continue to encourage each other in the innovative ways you have shown throughout this difficult time. Pray for each other, support each other, and protect each other.

The Town of Pike Road has strong, resilient people and by working together we will continue to be a special Hometown!

Thank you and God Bless,

Mayor Stone

TOWN OF PIKE ROAD, MONTGOMERY COUNTY ANNOUNCE CURFEW

County-wide Curfew Enhances Public Safety, Protects First Responders, and Provides Clarity Across Community

Pike Road, ALA – On Thursday, April 2, 2020, leadership from the Town of Pike Road, the Montgomery County Commission, and the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office announced a curfew for citizens of both the Town of Pike Road and unincorporated Montgomery County. The curfew is intended as an additional measure to protect the community and stop the spread of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19.

“Out of appreciation for our first responders and our law enforcement officials throughout Montgomery County, we want to work together and provide continuity to citizens across the County,” said Gordon Stone, Mayor of the Town of Pike Road. “Further, it gives clarity to citizens across Montgomery County to help reinforce the importance of social distancing. This is an opportunity to promote and encourage the self-discipline and behavior that brings about the quickest end to this ongoing challenge.”

March 30, 2020: A Letter from Pike Road Schools Superintendent Dr. Chuck Ledbetter

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

Dear PRS family,

As you all are aware, Governor Kay Ivey and State Superintendent of Education Dr. Eric Mackey announced on March 26th that our schools would not physically reopen for students until after June 5th. However, instruction of students may begin again via
distance learning beginning April 6th. This means no in person instruction or services of any kind, be they academics, arts, athletics, clubs, or any other co-curricular activity. It is the highest priority to quell the spread of COVID-19 through reducing interactions that could allow the virus to spread.

Although Pike Road educators are deeply saddened to not be able to spend time together with their classes, they have been working to make sure that the education of our students does not suffer. You will be receiving the Academic Continuity Plan for
your school/schools this afternoon. In it you will find details of how we are going to move forward with teaching and learning for the rest of the year. I ask all to work together in a spirit of patience and perseverance as we refine the process through experience.

Our goal in Pike Road Schools is not to simply do a patch for missed learning, but to truly make the learning opportunities for our students effective and to help them continue on their educational paths. No one is better poised to accomplish this goal than Pike Road Schools! We have been through five years of productive struggle to build a great school system. Our educators are committed to doing what is best to help students learn, and they have demonstrated their flexibility and their resolve repeatedly.

I am confident we will continue our students learning through this time unabated. It is important for our schools, our community, and our senior students that we celebrate our first senior class. Therefore, we are setting a date to have a graduation ceremony
for the Pike Road High School Class of 2020 on June 6th at 9:00 am at the stadium. We will monitor the situation leading up to that date and make plans accordingly.

Finally, thanks to each of you for being part of our family! We will work together through this crisis, we will learn valuable lessons as we do so that will help us grow and improve, and we will come out on the other side of this stronger for having gone through
it. Our mission to think, innovate, and create has never been more appropriate.

We have been teaching to prepare our students for an unknown future all along. Let's employ our critical thinking skills to solve this real world problem and use this as a grand learning opportunity!

Sincerely,

Dr. Charles Ledbetter
Superintendent, Pike Road Schools

PRS family,

Alabama Governor Kay Ivey and Alabama State Superintendent of Education Dr. Eric Mackey just concluded a press conference where they announced that schools in Alabama will not physically open for the rest of the school year. We will be allowed to begin E-learning via internet access on April 6th. Our educators have been planning for this for two weeks.

There will be a web meeting for Alabama school superintendents with Dr. Mackey on Friday morning March 27th where we will hear more details about what we will be allowed to do. The Pike Road Schools leadership team will be meeting after the webinar to finalize the plans we have been working on.

Pike Road Schools will communicate our plans for e-learning on Monday, March 30th. PRS is committed to the success of every child at Pike Road Schools and meeting the diverse needs of all of our learners. We are focused on eliminating gaps in learning that could occur due to this unique situation. The PRS team looks forward to working together to help our students complete
this school year.

Pike Road Schools has long awaited graduating its first senior class. This pandemic has thrown us a curve, but be assured we are planning ways to not only get all of our seniors graduated, but also to celebrate their accomplishments as the first seniors of Pike Road City Schools.

March 24, 2020: Municipal Facilities & Recycling Reminder

We are excited about the enthusiastic interest our community continues to show regarding recycling in the Town of Pike Road. Out of an abundance of caution for the health of both potential users of the recycling facility and the employees who are responsible for maintaining it, the Town of Pike Road’s Recycling Depot is included in the current municipal facility closures. The Town of Pike Road’s current policy, announced on March 18, 2020, effectively restricts public access to municipal facilities through April 12, and our team continues to work closely with local, county and state partners to evaluate closures following Apr. 12. We understand the inconvenience this policy creates for our citizens, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to combat the spread of COVID-19 together.

Dear PRS family,

Welcome back from Spring Break, even though we are not physically back in the classroom. Currently all preK-12 schools in Alabama are closed until April 6th. Closed means we cannot provide instruction that is for credit. Following Governor Kay Ivey’s State of Emergency order to close schools for an extended period, our leadership team began preparing for a number of
contingencies.

Our educators have been preparing and planning for this possibility for over two weeks. We will be offering enrichment learning activities as allowed by the Alabama State Department of Education so that learning does not stop. The learning gap caused by this worldwide health emergency is small for Pike Road Schools. We are uniquely poised to help our learners through electronic, on-line medium and can engage them in learning the standards appropriate to their grade level.

You will be hearing from your respective schools right away to verify that you have internet access at home. We will help facilitate temporary internet access to anyone who doesn't have access during the school facility shutdown period. Our plans are in place to move forward with e-learning for credit should the state allow it during the shutdown. We will send you more information about those plans as soon as we have the approval from the Alabama State Department of Education.

To assist learners and lead learners while working from home our Information Technology (IT) department will be providing support services via help desk tickets. Should you have needs, please contact itsupport@pikeroadschools.org and put in a request for help. They will get back to you with help in a timely fashion. The IT department will be working on help issues Monday-Fridays from 10 am until 2 pm. The remainder of their time will be spent troubleshooting issues and supporting our lead learners as they transition their class to an online format.

The Pike Road School System is committed to keeping our community safe, getting our seniors graduated, and helping all of our students to continue to learn and progress so that their learning is not interrupted by this world health crisis. I pray that you all are healthy and handling the changes this crisis has brought about. Thank you in advance for working with us as we get all of this going and work the kinks out. If you need my assistance, please call me on my cell at 334-714-1679.

The Town of Pike Road is providing you with the below information relative to municipal operations during the developing COVID-19 challenge with the simple goal of keeping our residents informed on local issues. It has been, and continues to be, our plan to encourage smart, safe and confident responses as we continue to face this challenge together.

The Town of Pike Road is actively working with leaders in the public and private sectors across Montgomery County, including the City of Montgomery, the Montgomery County Commission, and the Montgomery County Emergency Management Agency. Through our work with the EMA, we have been fortunate to have regular updates from local health agencies and providers of care. Further, we have each issued a state of local emergency proclamation, so as to quickly access additional resources if needed.

We are in touch with all of our utility partners, first responders, and Pike Road Schools leadership. Each organization has developed a response plan and has engaged a regular dialogue. It is clear that each is committed to safety, meeting needs, and maintaining quality response levels. We are especially appreciative of their commitment to serve and care for both citizens and their employees.

We have a dedicated team at the Town of Pike Road. Each member has been actively engaged in designing a multiple level plan of response. The Town has a strategy for immediate implementation, which calls for limiting access to public facilities. We are asking all who desire to conduct business to utilize an online or phone-in approach. We have closed public facilities to external activities through April 12, and we will continue to evaluate the date as circumstances change. To stay abreast of any changes to operational procedures, please visit www.pikeroad.us. To access our digital resources, please click here.

In closing, I have a deep belief in the power of prayer. With the strength and blessing of God, we will continue to be diligent. We will also work to make the best possible information available to our citizens. Thank you to all who are engaged in a smart, safe, and confident manner. Please remember that the CDC and ADPH provide great guidance, and we encourage personal attention to the recommendations for social distancing and public gatherings. We appreciate each of you. The Town of Pike Road is blessed to have a great future because of the people who make it such a special place to call home.

Thanks and God Bless,

Mayor Stone

Effective Thursday, March 19:

March 13, 2020: A Letter from Pike Road Schools Superintendent, Dr. Chuck Ledbetter

Click here to view this update as a PDF.

Pike Road Schools family,

We are going through an unprecedented time now as the world responds to the threat of a new, highly contagious infectious disease, COVID-19, or Coronavirus. The health and welfare of our students, employees, and community are our highest priority, and we are making decisions accordingly.

We are following the guidelines of the Center for Disease Control, the Alabama State Department of Education, and the Alabama Department of Public Health. We are communicating with them regularly and adjusting our plans according to their directives.

I am cancelling all school trips that are scheduled through the end of April. We will work vigorously to get deposits returned from vendors for field trips that have been paid in advance. We will continue to monitor events and make a determination about possible trips for the rest of this school year by early April.

We will continue to follow the directives of the Alabama High School Athletic Association concerning sports. Pike Road Schools teams will not attend any out of state sporting events until further notice.

Spring break arrives at a good time for us as we have a few days next week to see how COVID-19 is spreading and to adjust to the reactions to it. Several states have closed schools, and by the end of next week we should know a lot more about Alabama’s response and how it will effect schools.

I hope that you have an enjoyable, safe spring break, take prudent precautions to prevent the spread of germs, and enjoy a respite from schoolwork. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers as we continue to adjust to this fluid situation.

Sincerely,

Chuck Ledbetter, Ed. D.
Superintendent
