Columbia's Birthday


Tuesday was an absolutely beautiful day to celebrate the 225th birthday of the City of Columbia. Down on Main Street, several hundred people gathered for music, speeches, and a huge birthday cake.

On Wednesday, the Census confirmed that Columbia was the state's largest city. And, Richland County is now South Carolina's second largest county with 380,000 residents (trailing Greenville by 70,000 and outpacing Charleston by 30,000).

Here's a prayer for our next 225 years!
