Employer Committee awards three scholarships
By Janice Boling NGN Reporter

The Union Towns Employer Committee recently awarded scholarships to three local area high school students. Chosen for this special honor were Devan Mahan from Union County High School, Megan Leigh Gribble from Towns County High School, and Kali Thomas from Woody Gap High School. Union Towns Employee Committee members participated in various fundraisers throughout the year to raise money for these scholarships and other community projects. Everyone would like to say, “Congratulation to Devan, Megan, and Kali.” The Employer Committee is a group of local business representatives who establish and maintain a working relationship between the employer community and the Georgia Department of Labor’s Blairsville Career Center. Currently the Union Towns Employer Committee has a membership of over 35 including employers and agency representatives from the area.

There is no charge for membership on the committee. For more information about the scholarships or the Union Towns Employer Committee contact the Blairsville Career Center at (706) 745-6959 or send an email to janie.reilly@dol.state.ga.us.
