WEST JEFFERSON – SkyLine Membership Corporations has announced its 2022 Frank James-SkyLine Scholarship Program winners, providing a total of $25,000 in scholarship awards to 10 area high school graduates.
AVERY COUNTY â SkyLine Membership Corporation has been awarded a $97,000 partner grant through the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) and the Avery Chamber of Commerce to extend broadband connectivity to identified unserved and underserved areas of Avery County.
The grant, which requires a $100,000 match from SkyLine, mandated that the Chamber seek a qualified partner to provide the technical expertise and capacity to use the ARC funds awarded to the Chamber to make available high-speed internet services to as much of the identified areas as possible. The grant opportunity stemmed from a 2015 survey from Avery residents who reported inadequate broadband access in areas of southern Avery County. The projectâs goal is to provide affordable, adequate internet access to as many unserved and underserved residents and businesses as possible.
