Great things are happening at The Maple District. Check out their office space availability.

A quick, honest update: we have a few offices left at The Maple District, and we're being a little choosy about who fills them — we want the building to feel like the right mix of people.

Utilities, split wifi costs, conference room access, and a real downtown address — all included. Founding-tenant pricing holds for our first group, then it adjusts.

If you've been curious, this is a good time to come see it. Send a message and we'll set up a quiet walk-through.

Cherokee County Economic Development Director, Dale Helwig, had the privilege of presenting awards at the Columbus Senior Awards Assembly for the Class of 2026. These awards were presented to students who earned Platinum and Gold Level on the national ACT WorkKeys Assessment. These scores represent more than strong test performance- they demonstrate real-world workplace skills that employers value, including math, reading for information, and problem solving. These qualities will serve these students well in college, technical training, military service, and future careers.
Congratulations!!
🏆 Platinum: Katelyn Draeger, Blake Stanely, Johnathan Thomas
🏆 Gold: Luke Breeden, Aiden Casada, Gabe Edwards, Broland Gibson, Kiara Goff, Morgan Richards, Makenzie Richards, Lemmie Stone
