COLUMBIA, S.C. — The Columbia Chamber created a plan, the reConnect Columbia! Playbook, to help businesses in the community as they plan for reopening.

"We currently serve over 1,200 Partners in the private, public, and government sectors who all need some sort of guidance through this time. This Playbook will help start the conversation of determining what needs to take place before opening for customers and employees to both feel safe."
