Columbus Chamber highlights public safety at quarterly meeting
COLUMBUS, Ga. (— The Columbus Chamber of Commerce hosted their quarterly 'Eye Opener Breakfast', where some of the city's leaders spoke about Columbus public safety.
Some of today's panelists included Chief of Police Stoney Mathis, Muscogee County Sheriff Greg Countryman, Fire and EMS Chief Sal Scarpa and Muscogee County Prison Warden Herbert Walker.
Today's message was one of unity, as the panelists highlighted their joined efforts to protect and defend Columbus citizens.
'A unique thing about this is that you have all four of the public safety leaders here today. And we work well together.' said Sheriff Greg Countryman. 'And I think that that should be a good feel for anyone to know that we have public safety leaders who believe in working together for the for the benefit of those we serve.'
This was a part of a series of Chamber of Commerce events focused on the community. This year the Chamber has already held Mayor Skip Henderson's State of the City and a conversation with Fort Benning commander Maj. Gen. Colin Tuley.
