What is very new, yellow and free to the person who makes a hole-in-one on the first tee at Highlands Cove golf course on Oct. 4? According to Sonja Haynes, Southwestern Community College Foundation director, it’s a new truck.

"The first person to make a hole-in-one at our fund raiser golf tournament will win a brand new Chevy Colorado truck from Allison’s Chevrolet Jeep dealership in Sylva,” Haynes said. “And we really want to give this truck away this year. We are inviting all area golfers to come out, take a swing and win this truck.”

Funds raised through the golf tournament at Highlands Cove, located between Cashiers and Highlands, benefit the Foundation’s scholarship program.

"This is the only fund raiser the Foundation holds specifically for scholarships,” Haynes said. “The people who sign up for teams in the golf tournament help deserving students go to college. It’s really that simple. Tournament participants are contributing to both the future of SCC students and the communities in which the students live; because the majority of our students stay and work in Jackson, Macon and Swain counties and the Cherokee Boundary.”

Looking at the truck, Haynes said that it is not the only incentive being offered to players.

"Winning team members receive gift certificates to the pro shop at Highlands Cove,” she said. “In addition, it’s just plain fun to play this beautiful course. It’s really spectacular.”
