Melody Thomas Scott, who plays Nikki Reed Newman, is back where she belongs on Young and the Restless — in the thick of things! Now, there’s an opportunity coming up next month for fans to meet the Daytime Emmy Lifetime Achievement Award winner in person!

Great Scott!

The actress is headed to Lily Dale, New York for an evening that fans won’t want to miss! The actress is set to host three events in Lily Dale starting on Friday, August 9, and continuing onto Saturday, August 10.

Seats are limited to just 65 people in order for there to be enough time for Scott meet each attendee. “I love Western New York, have a special place in my heart for Jamestown,” Thomas Scott says of Lucille Ball’s hometown (read about her love of Lucy here), “and when the opportunity came to spend a weekend with my fans in nearby Lily Dale, I said, ‘Yes! Count me in!’”

According to a press release on the event: “Lily Dale, north of Jamestown, was incorporated in 1879 to further the science, philosophy and religion of Spiritualism. Each summer thousands of people visit for a nine-week season which includes lectures and workshops on mediumship, astrology, spiritualist studies and the paranormal.”

“I have an interest in psychics, mediums, and all that comes with spiritualism, so hosting three fundraising events for Lily Dale Assembly in Lily Dale, New York, this summer is a perfect fit for me,” Thomas Scott adds.

On Friday evening, August 9, Scott will welcome Buffalo-based astrologer Cassandra Butler to the Lily Dale Assembly auditorium stage for “Astrology & The Stars With Melody Thomas Scott.”

While Butler provides the audience with an understanding of the basics of astrology, Melody will bring in the “stars” as she shares 12 fun stories of Hollywood celebrities she’s encountered over the years—with each star representing a different sign of the zodiac.

“I’m looking forward to being on stage, learning from Cassandra, and reflecting back on meeting Aretha Franklin and confessing to what I did to Clint Eastwood,” Thomas Scott continued. “It will be a great way to kick-off our Lily Dale weekend together.”

On Saturday night, August 10, Thomas Scott will share stories about her career, which she wrote about in her memoir Always Young and Restless. “We’re planning a little extra surprise, too,” she said.

A special VIP gala is planned in which fans will have the opportunity to chat and take selfies with the daytime icon. There’s an auction, too, and all proceeds will benefit Lily Dale Assembly. Live music and refreshments will also be included.

Tickets to all three events are now on sale exclusively at www.lilydaleassembly.org by simply typing “Melody” on the website’s search bar, or by calling 716-595-8721.
