4
You only turn 60 and open a state-of-the-art greenhouse once! To celebrate, we held a ribbon cutting and threw two parties in one week. Historic Columbia staff, City of Columbia and Richland County partners, and members of the Darnall W. and Susan F. Boyd Foundation met on March 9 for a ribbon cutting ceremony. On March 11, guests experienced The Party of the Decade, an elegant evening on the grounds of the Hampton-Preston Mansion. Then on March 13, the public was invited to see the new Boyd Foundation Horticultural Center at Celebrating 60.
RIBBON CUTTING Here’s to Susan! Mayor Daniel Rickenmann presented Susan Boyd with a key to the city and proclaimed March 9, 2022 to be Susan F. Boyd Day at the ribbon cutting for the Boyd Foundation Horticultural Center and an historically inspired gatehouse.
