Columbia Police Department Receives Donation For 2026 Operation Christmas Spirit

The Columbia Police Department extends its sincere appreciation to Priceless IGA in Columbia for their generous donation of $1,000.00 in merchandise to support the 2026 Operation Christmas Spirit program. This contribution will directly benefit residents of Columbia and Adair County during the holiday season.
