Columbia ready to turn shade of green

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WOLO) – The City of Columbia is used to seeing the colors, garnet and black, but that’s about to change in Five Points. Friday night is the kick-off to the annual St. Patrick’s Day event. It’s going on, from five to seven. Organizers will dye the fountain green, and there will be other entertainment, like irish step dancers and a local balloon twister.
