COLUMBIA, SC – September 10, 2009 – The first ever event from Columbia Synergy is a Fall Festival scheduled for October 15th at 7pm at Liberty Tap Room in the Vista. The event will give local businesses the opportunity to network in a casual environment while at the same time raising money for the Lake Murray Jaycees and Camp Hope. Brian Haddock, owner of All Natural Signs and founder of Columbia Synergy said of the event, Networking has been one of the primary ways I’ve grown my own business, and in these economic times we need to network more than ever. Now, we have an opportunity to give back to the community at the same time. What better way to spend a Thursday night? The event is open to the public, and attendees are asked to share in the fun by dressing as their favorite TV or movie character. This inaugural Fall Festival is sponsored by All Natural Signs, That Computer Store, Option Media, Southlake Village, and Rita Bowles of Russell and Jeffcoat.
