COLUMBIA SPY

Sounding like several musicians at once, one-man band Nick DiSanto played the Columbia Market house today to the delight of visitors. With a Gretsch resonator guitar and a variety of other instruments (including a harmonica and bass drum), DiSanto played a number of classic popular songs during his performance. He'll be performing at the Market House again next Sunday.

        Sunday Market will continue into 2016.

Santa Claus came to Columbia Saturday morning to the joy of his adoring fans who braved the cold to await his arrival.  The venerable old elf rode through town on a vintage 1948 fire truck owned by the Columbia Borough Fire Department as children led the way. Before returning to the North Pole, he traveled to the former Viggies firehouse where breakfast was served to his hungry followers. Breakfast was sponsored by the CCFD Auxiliary Columbia QRS.

The following request, previously posted on Facebook, was sent to Columbia Spy for publication.

According to the borough office, the newly installed letters on the Columbia Crossing were recently vandalized. Sometime between noon on Wednesday and 8 o'clock this morning, several letters were removed from the building's exterior and thrown on the walkway. Fortunately, none were damaged. A handyman (Wilson) replaced the letters this morning. Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Columbia Borough Police at 684-7735.
