I'm thankful we get to continue this now-tradition of passing out mailboxes to each graduating senior at Troy School and CCHS. Thanks to Mr. Mullett for allowing me to say a few words of encouragement, and for the soon-to-be graduates for their kindness. I'm proud to be a part of this great community!
Now, let's do our part and cheer them on as they embark on new careers, skills, and education! ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿ“ฌ๐Ÿ“œ๐ŸŽ‰

Patriotic bunting supports the museum!

The City of Columbia City recently announced a special residential decorating contest to celebrate Americaโ€™s semiquincentennial birthday. Residents are encouraged to decorate the exterior of their homes with red, white, and blue decorations between now and June 7.

โ€œThe goal of this contest is for our residents to share in the celebration of Americaโ€™s 250th birthday,โ€ said Mayor Ryan Daniel. โ€œThe patriotic spirit is strong in our community, and this contest is one of many ways our city will celebrate the occasion.โ€

Like the annual holiday lighting contest hosted by the city, a team of judges will travel throughout the city from June 8th โ€“ 22nd to award the best decorated homes in each of the four city council districts, while also awarding an overall champion. The awards will be given at the Stars, Stripes and Symphony event on July 2 in downtown Columbia City. Residents are encouraged to decorate for day and nighttime viewing.

โ€œWe are excited to see the creative displays that show community and national pride in the weeks leading up to the America 250 celebration,โ€ said Councilwoman Jennifer Romano, chair of the decorating contest. โ€œWe encourage residents to self-report to ensure the judges get to experience the hard work of every citizen!โ€

To self-report your home for the judges to see, email Jennifer Romano at [email protected]
