Friday night Chief Kelvin Sewell hosted the annual Christmas party and award ceremony for the Pocomoke City Police Department. About 100 people attended the function held in the beautiful Community Center at the fire house. After a meal of Eastern Shore favorites, Chief Sewell announced that Sgt. Arthur Hancock was this year's Officer of the Year. On receiving the award, Sgt. Hancock spoke briefly and acknowledged that his award was possible because of a great team of fellow officers. Last night's event had another reason for celebration, Chief Sewell's daughter graduated from UMES in the morning, with family members present from Baltimore!
