Good News for the Public Square

It hasn't even been two weeks since Friends of the Public Square (FOPS) and the Columbia County Chamber of Commerce launched their partnership to encourage local employers to support the restoration of Seventh Street Park, a.k.a. the Public Square. Since then, FOPS has been announcing contributions made by local businesses, and one family, on its Facebook page.  

Earlier this evening, the Register-Star reported that Congressman Josh Riley was successful in securing $250,000 in federal funding for the park restoration: "U.S. Rep Josh Riley secures $250K for Hudson's 7th Street Park renovations."
