As it was 200 years ago, Columbus is first and foremost, a river town! Founded in 1828 on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, it served as an important connector between the southern plantations and the international cotton industry. Bringing American dreams to fruition, it is the birthplace of the formula for Coca Cola and was home to RC Cola until the 1960's. Ideally located between the intersection of five major highways, it is the third largest city in Georgia. Southern hospitality is alive and well, it's "just the way we are down here."

Columbus has a strong legacy of African-American history. The contributions of black citizens have played a major role in the growth of the city. Many notable citizens of Columbus' black community took bold actions for simple civil rights. Among those was The Reverend Primus Edward King, a famous civil rights activist. After being denied his voting right in 1944, King took the decision to the federal appeals court, where he won the right to vote in Democratic primaries for all blacks in Georgia.
