 Hello, Columbia, and welcome to This Week in the City. Highlights brought to you from the Public Relations, Media, and Marketing Department with the City of Columbia. I'm your host, Alicia Yeatsy. On This Week in the City, our first highlight is a monthly special from the Pet Adoption for Animal Services. This month, during the month of December, all pets can be purchased for $25. Again, that's only $25 from December 1 through the 31st. So if you're looking for a great gift idea for someone you love, go to Animal Services and check out the Puppies, Kittens, Cats, and Dogs that are for adoption this month for only $25. Also, during this week, on Wednesday, the Office of Business Opportunities will host their holiday drop-in at Optus Bank on Main Street from 6 to 8 p.m. Again, that's on Wednesday, December 4. As we move through the week, on Friday, December 6, it's Arbor Day in the City. As a part of the Arbor Day celebration this year, the City of Columbia will be hosting a tree planting ceremony at a local school on Friday morning. And later that afternoon, join us at Columbia College at 3 p.m. for the Treasure Trees Awards Ceremony. City officials will be announcing the winners of the Treasure Trees Awards, along with partnerships with Columbia Green, Parks and Recreation, and Forestry beautification from the City of Columbia. Also, we want you to plan ahead and be sure that you make time in your schedule next week for the at-large holiday drop-in hosted by Councilmembers Tamika Azadevine and Howard DeVall. Again, plan ahead for December 14 for the drop-in hosted by our two at-large Councilmembers, starting at 5 p.m., ending at 7 p.m. That event will be held at the Busby Street Community Center.
