Media Advisory: Open House At New Congressional Office In Columbus

April 1, 2003

U.S. Representative Sanford Bishop is inviting everyone to attend the ribbon cutting and open house for the new Second Congressional District Office in Columbus Monday (4/21), located at Suite 201, Heritage Towers, 18 Ninth Street.

The event is scheduled to begin at 4 p.m.

The Second District covers all or parts of 27 southwest Georgia counties, including an area of Columbus-Muscogee County, which was added to the district in the new reapportionment plan that went into effect this year with the start of the 108th Congress.

Representative Bishop will be on hand to host the open house and office opening ceremony, and Second District Congressional staff members will also be present to help greet visitors and answer questions.

"Along with our Second District offices located in Albany, Dawson and Valdosta, the new office brings the wide range services we provide closer to home for the people and communities we serve," the Congressman said. "We look forward to everyone from the community and throughout the Second District visiting our new service center based in Columbus."
