Bluffton assisting in 1976 WBGU telethon

In 1976 the Bluffton Business Men's Association participated in one of the WBGU TV telethons. The BBMA eventually became the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce.

Dick Boehr, president of the association at the time, gathered a group of Bluffton volunteers to "man the phones" during the event.

This photo was taken on March 11, 1976, in the WBGU TV studio. A note on the back of the photo indicates Bluffton raised $770 during its time working the phones.

Persons in the photo, from left in front, Dick Boehr and Ron Geiser.

Apple dumplings and Bluffton Farmers' Market go together

Heather Theis and the Bluffton Farmers’ Market go back 12 seasons. She was one of the original market vendors.

After taking a break for a few years, this year she returns her business called “Hearth and Home.” That business involves bakery items and some crafts.

PHOTOS OF HER BAKED ITEMS ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS STORY.

On a typical Saturday, customers will find her home-baked products at the market.
