Small Business of the Year: Columbia Magazine
2024-07-27 - Adair County, KY
Columbia Magazine was voted the 2024 Chamber of Commerce Small Business of the Year. Columbia Magazine was started by Linda Waggener as a small black and white monthly print magazine back in 1997. After the turn of the century CM migrated to the first online local news and features publication in the region with Pen Waggener as webmaster.
Since Ed and Linda began posting daily updates in 2006, Columbia Magazine format has stayed the same, and thanks to sponsors, it is the only news site that does not require any login, password, nor personal information, to read it - just pull up the website www.columbiamagazine.com and 25 years of stories and pictures are all right there - ready to enjoy.

Robert writes, "This picturesque reservoir is past the community of Circleville and is fed by the Sevier river. The Butch Cassidy boyhood home is only minutes away."
