  • 2019 SPARK! Spouse Conference Presenter Biographies
    2019 SPARK! Spouse Conference Presenter Biographies Special Guest Vera Stewart, host of The VeryVera Show, has been the example of female entrepreneurship in the Au- gusta, GA area for over 35 years. Stewart made her start with a cottage catering business, made a name for herself by shipping cakes and casseroles all over the country, and became a cooking and lifestyle TV show host after a successful run on Throwdown with Bobby Flay. She has been featured in countless publications over the course of her career, including two separate runs in Southern Living, O, The Oprah Magazine, InStyle, Town & Country, The New York Times, and Veranda. Vera Stewart With a degree in Home Economics Education for the University of Georgia, Vera spent four years ed- ucating high school students on culinary knowledge and adult living practices. Motherhood brought Vera out of the classroom and into the home, where her catering business was born. The event that put her business on the map was the inaugural luncheon for Georgia Governor Joe Frank Harris in 1983, and in 1984, the VeryVera brand was crafted. To continue the company’s growth, she diversified into a multifaceted catering and mail-order business with national sales. Vera’s love for teaching opened up another opportunity for diversification when she started a summer cooking school. VeryVera Cooking Camp, which sells out yearly, enters its 16th year in Summer 2019. 2017 brought VeryVera’s inaugural camp franchise program, in which franchisees in Columbus, GA and Aiken, SC held their very own VeryVera Cooking Camp for the first time.

  • Presented By: Top Ten Communities in Richmond Hill 1
    Presented by: Top Ten Communities in Richmond Hill 1 Want to live in RICHMOND HILL? The City of Richmond Hill is located on the eastern edge of Bryan County, Georgia and is roughly 20 miles south of “The Hostess City,” and metropolitan area of Savannah, Georgia. Having seen several name changes throughout its settlement, it was not until American industrialist Henry Ford and the local citizenry renamed the former Ways Station to Richmond Hill in 1941. Today, this Lowcountry city encompasses roughly 15 square miles and is comprised of nearly 9,300 local residents as of the 2010 U.S. Census. Mild winters and warm summers make for an ideal permanent residence and popular vacation destination for visitors with its unique access to waterways, Fort McAllister Historic Park and picturesque views of the Great Ogeechee River. Home to several military families and veterans due to its close proximity to Fort Stewart in nearby Hinesville, Georgia and Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah, Georgia; Richmond Hill affords its civilian and military residents with great ease of access to surrounding localities and Interstates. The Bryan County School District serves Richmond Hill with six public schools and an additional three slated to open in the foreseeable future as a result of the projected population growth. Throughout the year the community supports several local events and causes like the Great Ogeechee Seafood Festival, National Night Out and Matthew Freeman Road Race to name a few and is governed by a mayor and a four-member city council. Several amenities and shopping centers contribute to the prosperous community that boasts a median family income of $54,457.
