Here’s your chance to get your geek on and see the inner workings of the task force set up to plan Columbia’s 200th birthday in 2021.

The meeting is set for 7 p.m. July 25 in the Walton Building at 300 S. Providence Road.

If you’re geeky like me, you’ll want to see what they’ve done already. This link will take you to the agenda with a link to a draft of the minutes for the June 27, 2018 meeting. That’s where you can see what the group is already working on. So much geeky fun!

So what am I inviting you to come and see? It is a meeting of the Mayor’s Task Force on Bicentennial Celebration Planning. Quite a mouthful, right?! But don’t worry — it’s fun, in a geeky way, and the public is always welcome!

Task force task smorse, don’t get too impressed. This is just a group, some appointed by Mayor Brian Treece and some folks who just like this kind of historic/geeky stuff (that’s me and a few others) who are gathering to collect input and ideas and to work with organizations to plan our city’s big birthday.
