Varkados named Volunteer of the Year

Every year the Pike County Chamber of Commerce celebrates volunteerism with a dinner and an evening of recognition and thanks. Area charities are invited to participate, each naming their own Volunteer of the Year. This year the Pike County Humane Society celebrated the dedication of Kathy Varkados, longtime supporter and friend to the PCHS. Varkados not only volunteers with the shelter and shares her home with many rescued pets, she also became a board member this year. A statement on behalf of the society explained, “We’d like to take this opportunity to let everyone know that we couldn’t be doing all the important work we do without the dedication and constant support from our core group of hard-working volunteers. Thanks, Kathy, for being an exemplary part of this team!”
