Parade winners in Columbia's Traditional Christmas By Linda Waggener It was a beautiful parade! The weather cooperated by warming up into the forties, just enough that it was bearable to be outside and catch the candies thrown into the crowds. Christmas carols were playing on the new Adair County Courthouse chimes, and everybody was able to watch the floats, cars, trucks, band first responders and horses make the two mile journey from the industrial Park to the public Square, around the Courthouse and out Burkesville Street to disband. Judges made the decisions that the winners in the hometown floats were: first place Columbia Church of Christ; second place Mid-State Ready Mix; third place Free Union Separate Baptist Church; fourth place TJ Health Columbia; and fifth place TCRECC. Those who work the annual Columbia Adair Chamber of Commerce parade, directly and indirectly, get lots of thanks for volunteering for the intense communications, scheduling, gathering prizes, and giving the signal to go! Good job! 2024-12-09 08:33:58 | Comments | Printable version
