Sweet Sensations

Around Town Sweet Sensations

The Scaly Mountain Women’s Club provides tuition reimbursement for qualifying residents of Scaly Mountain and Sky Valley

The women of Scaly Mountain are thrilled to once again participate in the upcoming Art and Craft show in Highlands on June 25 & 26.

Our “Sweet Sensations” booth will feature delectable treats to please all palettes including our pups. In addition to the tasty sweets we will have an original “Butchie Neely” painting on display. Butchie is a long time member and local artist. Her painting will go to the winner of a raffle.

The mission of the Scaly Mountain Women’s Club is to offer scholarships for post-high school education to local students as well as adults looking to further their education. Our club began in 1988 as a group of fourteen ladies and we have grown to over 80 members. We are currently supporting eleven students with their studies and have provided over $287,000 in scholarships since the inception of the club.

In addition to providing “dollars for scholars” we support many local non-profit community service organizations, including The Highlands Literacy Council; The Highlands Emergency Council; The Food Bank; and the Highlands/Cashiers Hospital Foundation, just to name a few. To date we have donated over $117,000 to local organizations.

In addition to participating in the Art and Craft festival, The Scaly Mountain Women’s Club hosts pancake breakfasts during the summer months so keep an eye our for our signs in and around Scaly and Sky Valley.

Our main fundraiser is the “Tee Up and Wine Down” golf tournament, dinner and silent auction. Mark your calendar for the weekend of August 13th and visit our facebook page for additional information. This event sells out quickly.

We look forward to seeing you at our “Sweet Sensations” booth at the upcoming festival. We will have delicious samples for people and pups so stop by for some sweets and shopping for a good cause.
