Meet the Colberts (Elizabeth and Stephen) this Sunday morning

Congressional candidate Elizabeth Colbert-Busch will be joined by well-known brother Stephen and other family at a campaign event this Sunday, her campaign announced today.

A prayer breakfast starts at 8 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 24 at the ILA Hall (1142 Morrison Rd. in North Charleston). Doors will open at 7:30 a.m.

Rev. McKinley Washington Jr. will preside at the event.

While breakfast service is limited to the first 250 who arrive, Colbert-Busch and Stephen Colbert will personally address other attendees from a parade float in the parking lot.

The meal will be served by Island Catering, and the float for parking lot address comes from Parade Floats by Allen.

Interested persons can RSVP and learn a little more about the event at its Facebook page.

The hosting location holds relevance to her campaign, as well. The International Longshoreman's Association, which operates the facility that will host this breakfast, is an associate of the state AFL-CIO, which endorsed Colbert-Busch last week.

Later that same Feb. 24, Colbert-Busch will be keynote speaker at the 2nd annual awards show of the Lowcountry Black Historical Society. She's also one of 11 to receive award from the organization.
