Welcome to the Pike County Times.com We Are Pike County Page.
If you have a picture of a Pike County event or Pike County people that you would like to show off, email it to: editor (at) pikecountytimes (dot) com with a description that I can place under the picture on the We are Pike County web page. Normally, I do not place the names of children with their pictures or I place names in alphabetical order because I consider it to be a possible hazard to children with this website being available on the world wide web. Thanks to all who send pictures and information to The Pike County Times. This is truly a community newspaper because of your contributions!

A record number of children of all ages squeezed into the J. Joel Edwards Public Library on Saturday, December 15, in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there. Delightfully surprised by the impressive numbers who still believe in him, Santa provided individual attention and a toy for each child – although he did have to send his elf, Bubba, back to the sleigh several times for more toys.
