Hello, Columbia! The holiday season is truly in the air, and our city is buzzing with exciting events this weekend that are sure to bring smiles and joy to many. Whether you’re a fan of twinkling lights or giving back to those in need, there’s something happening just for you!
This Sunday, December 8, the Columbia Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center is hosting its annual Vets’ Christmas Charity Ride. The event kicks off at 2 p.m. at Carolina Honda as hundreds of motorcyclists rev up their engines and ride to the Dorn VA Medical Center. It’s a heartwarming sight as riders will be bringing gifts and donations specifically for our Veterans.
The community’s participation is what makes events like these so special. Everyone is invited to join in on the fun of spreading holiday cheer. So, if you see a line of motorcyclists cruising through Columbia, remember, they are on a mission to brighten the lives of those who’ve served our country. And hey, if you want to show your support, gather your friends and family and cheer them on!
It’s a simple yet impactful way to give back to the community. Grab a few toys while you’re out shopping and help fill up that police cruiser! Let’s show our kids that the spirit of giving is alive and well in Columbia!
For those who love the beauty of holiday lights, you’re in for a treat! The Midland’s largest drive-thru light show, Holiday Lights on the River, opens nightly from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Saluda Shoals Park. The show runs through December 31, so there’s plenty of time to gather the family and soak in the festive atmosphere.
Imagine driving through millions of sparkling lights while enjoying the sights and sounds of the season. That’s right, you can even glide down the Winter wonder tube slide, take a delightful hayride, and have a special visit from Santa himself. It’s a fantastic way to create memories with loved ones in this magical time of year!
But wait, there’s more! Kershaw County is also lighting up the night with its Tinsel Trail at Wateree River Veterans Park on US HWY 1 in Lugoff. This enchanting event runs from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and will showcase tons of beautiful Christmas lights and decorated trees. If you’re in the mood for a stroll or just want to immerse yourself in the joy of the season, make sure to stop by and enjoy the stunning presentation!
So, Columbia, gear up for an action-packed weekend filled with spirit, giving, and vibrant lights! These events not only celebrate the joy of the season but also remind us of the importance of community and togetherness.
