WCFD was honored to help cheer on the Unified Champions as they departed Saluda River Academy for the Arts. Our crew gave the buses a misty sendoff as they headed to Airport High School to compete in the South Carolina Special Olympics.

🚧 Mill Village Area Infrastructure Project Update 🚧
Beginning the week of February 16, 2026, the City of West Columbia will begin improvements to the storm drainage system on Alexander Road near the entrance of Riverwalk Circle.

During construction:
• Detour signs will be in place to guide local traffic around the construction area
• Access from Riverwalk Circle onto Alexander Road will be limited to left turns only
• Access for Riverwalk Circle residents will be maintained at all times

We appreciate your patience and cooperation as crews complete these necessary storm drainage upgrades.

WCFD had a surprise visit from Olly the Otter! We’re teaming up with Olly and Meaningful Play for their Easter fundraiser, bringing joy to local kids facing serious illnesses right here in WeCo.

We still need to sponsor the remaining 48 warrior families before Easter.

WCFD is teaming up with Olly the Otter and Meaningful Play for their Easter fundraiser!

What is Meaningful Play? It's the belief that joy is a tool for healing. When a child is diagnosed with cancer, heart defect, or rare/severe illness, Meaningful Play brings Olly the Otter to their front doors to bring back normalcy through play. Right here in WeCo, we have 18 brave kids, including siblings, who are facing life's toughest battles.

What's in a Sponsorship? For these kids and their siblings, it's more than just an Easter egg. It's a visit from Olly, a "Glow-in-the-Dark" egg hunt to find the light in the dark, and a chance to just be a kid. A full family sponsorship is $100, but any amount helps. If ten people chip in $10, that's one West Columbia family fully covered!

Let's show these Warriors that WeCo has their back 👉 https://tinyurl.com/3czkudyx

If all 95 families are sponsored, Olly will get soaked with a hose at the WCFD fire station. 😎
