New owners for The Dough Hook, but it's all in the family

Bluffton’s Main Street meat market, bakery and deli, The Dough Hook, has new owners, but, as they say, “It’s all in the family.”

Sharon and John Calvelage retired at the end of August and the new owners are their daughter and son-in-law, Marlena and Shawn Ballinger. The Calvelages took over the shop in October 2008.

Men's soccer: Muskingum sneaks past Beavers

The Bluffton University men's soccer team headed south for its first road match of the season at Muskingum University on a balmy Tuesday, Sept. 10.

Playing under the lights, Bluffton was unable to find its rhythm offensively as the home team netted a 2-0 victory over the Beavers.

With less than three minutes to play in the opening period, Muskingum made it 1-0 when a Bluffton header went awry. Cody Sprague took advantage as the home team finished the period with a 10-4 advantage in shots.

Weather: Looks like no rain in sight

The first nine days of September weather have ranged fairly wide, according to Pandora weather observer Guy Verhoff.

Our highest temperature during that time was 91 degrees (F) on Monday, September 9 and our lowest temperature was 47 degrees (F) during the overnight of September 6.

Notably, we had very little rain in the first nine days of September.  The first and second days held less than four one-hundredths of an inch of rain.  And no rain has fallen since.
