Columbia’s 22nd Annual Greek Festival
Posted by Ian Headley 09/24/2008 - 10:35:51 AM
In between taking a few phone calls supporting the Senator’s drive to get more American-made energy and writing some thank you notes, I noticed quite a crowd gathering across from the office building that houses the Senator’s Columbia office.

I had heard a radio announcement on the commute into Columbia this morning so I knew it must be the annual Columbia Greek Festival. Every year the festival is held at the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church on Sumter Street in Columbia. So for lunch I and a few fellow staffers headed over for some delicious gyros!

Even if you aren’t a big fan of gyros, there is lots more great food to enjoy.

And if you go be sure to check out some of the great music and shopping!
