Fridays in May and June
Main Street Marketplace is an open air market sponsored by the City of Columbia. It features vendors selling fresh produce, flowers, specialty gifts and handmade crafts as well as food vendors. The market is held between 10am and 2pm in Boyd Plaza, which is at the coner of Main and Hampton Streets, in front of the Columbia Museum of Art. Admission is free, and when the summer heat gets too hot, head into the chilly Museum for a look at the Excavating Egypt exhibit.
From now until August
The Columbia Blowfish, the city's local minor league baseball team, have started their summer season. Check out their website for the complete schedule!

First Time Buyers >The Perfect House Home buyers must often deal with deferred maintenance or repairs. For example, you may have found a terrific house and like many competent home buyers, you included a structural inspection contingency in your purchase agreement. What happens when you find out that your "perfect" house needs some work? Do you ask the sellers to pay for the repairs? Before you answer "yes", there are some important considerations.
Some contracts require that all of the home's systems, such as plumbing, heating, electrical and central air conditioning, be in working order. In this case, the sellers may be obligated to repair any problems with these systems. Leaky roofs, damp basements, or other structural problems may not be covered, however. If you ask the sellers to make these types of repairs, you may void the contract by doing so. The sellers might prefer to negotiate the repairs to keep from losing the sale. If there are other buyers waiting in the wings with back-up contracts, you run the risk of losing the home.
