Historic Columbia to Offer Free Admission to Veterans on Veteran’s Day

November 10, 2016

COLUMBIA, S.C., Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2016 — In honor of Veteran’s Day, Historic Columbia will offer free admission on all house tours to veterans on Friday, Nov. 11.  Veterans are invited to tour the Robert Mills House, Hampton-Preston Mansion, Mann-Simons Site or the Woodrow Wilson Family Home to learn more about Columbia’s history.

Free admission will be offered to veterans with proper military identification. Visit historiccolumbia.org for a list of house tour times. Tours will begin at the Gift Shop at Robert Mills, located at 1616 Blanding Street in Columbia.

About Historic Columbia:

In November 1961, a small group of individuals intent on saving the Ainsley Hall House from demolition officially incorporated as the Historic Columbia Foundation. Over the next five decades the organization, which was founded on the premise of preservation and education, would take on the stewardship of seven historic properties in Richland County. Today, the organization serves as a model for local preservation efforts and interpretation of local history. Visit historiccolumbia.org or find us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube for more details.
