The roots of our environmental committee pre-date the official formation of the Association. Back in the late 1970s, local landowners saw the need to work together. They wanted to protect and preserve this beautiful part of the planet. Their interest and ability to work together eventually led to the Valleys being placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In time, these individuals became the core group of the Sautee-Nacoochee Community Association.

Although the Association's mission broadened to include cultural programming, the commitment to conservation and preservation efforts remains.

Programs that fulfill this commitment can be viewed through the links above.
