Downtown

City of Pocomoke

 · 

The funds raised at the Mayor’s Old-Fashion Christmas Evening Holiday Wreath Auction benefited the Downtown Beautification Project which funded the flowers planted downtown this spring.

A special thank you to the Downtown Pocomoke Association for purchasing the hanging flower pots & brackets for our downtown light poles as well as watering equipment.

And a BIG thank you to DPA Members Mark & Amber Thompson of Simply Sublime Massage and Bodywork for volunteering to keep them watered!

Copycats Are Welcome Here!

Years of researching are reflected in The Pocomoke Public Eye's weekly "Time Machine" collections of old newspaper items of local interest. It's our history! And for the most part it's not what you'll find in a history book. You are welcome and encouraged to copy and save material we post to make your own personal collection, and to share with others as well. If you need help with how to go about it ask a friend (or a youngster!) to clue you in. We like copycats!
