We can’t thank our medical professionals and first responders enough for their continued service and dedication during the difficult times COVID-19 has brought to many in our community. To express our appreciation, we delivered meals from Groucho’s Deli–Forest Drive to officers with the City of Forest Acres, City of Columbia, & Richland County Sheriff’s Dept., and firefighters at the Columbia Fire Dept.
