 July 4th quickly approaches, the City of Pikeville is gearing up with a plethora of events this coming weekend. Beginning this Friday, the City of Pikeville will be hosting a variety of events in preparation for July 4th. Monday, Mountaintops spoke with Appalachian Wireless Director of Special Events, Kevin Roberts, about their plans. Well, we've got an entire weekend worth of festivities to help celebrate Independence Day. Starting out on Friday night, we have a cruise in, so we'll have all kinds of classic cars right here at the Appalachian Wireless Arena parking lot. That starts at six, then at seven o'clock we've got live music with Main Street Live going on, so great time on Friday night, but that leads into Saturday. We are Pikeville Medical Center, and we are an amazing place to work, healthcare heroes of all types work here, all who deserve great rewards. So while our heroes are working hard to take care of our patients and visitors, we are taking care of them with top-tier benefits, higher pay rates, and great sign-on bonuses. So join our team today. So what are you waiting for? Applaud today! Incredible opportunities await at PMCJobs.org. On Saturday, the City will be hosting inflatables, face painting, and live music, all leading into Monday. Everybody's been stuck at home, they've not been able to go out, they've not been able to celebrate with friends. If you got to see fireworks, you came out, saw the fireworks from your car, you didn't get to really talk to anybody. We want this to be an event. We want people to come out, we want them to enjoy each other, enjoy all the fun, all the festivities, all the vendors, all the food, all the different fun things going on in the park. Of course, to top that all off, on July 4th at dark, we'll have some really nice fireworks for you. For a scheduled list of events, you can visit the City of Pikeville's Facebook page.
