Letter: Group interested in having a Bluffton High School swim team

Posted by Fred Steiner on September 14, 2011 - 8:31am

Icon viewers:

The Bluffton Summer Swim Coaches have tried yet again (with no avail) to persuade the Bluffton Exempted School District to allow a High School Swim Team the ability to perform with the sponsorship (non-monetary or the like) of Bluffton Schools.

The major argument against the installation of a Swim Team was that the District cannot fund another Varsity Sport. Our intent was to create a club team which would not require a financial backing from the school.

Letter: Heros

My son wrote this last year for English class at Trinity Lutheran School in Jenera. I thought it was very appropriate for the 9/11 anniversary. I think people should read it and realize our heroes are not football or basketball stars. They are ordinary people like you and me. It brings a smile to my face every time I read it so I thought it should be shared with the Bluffton community.

We at Stratton Greenhouses would like to thank everyone who participated in the 2011 Bluffton Beautification Project. Because of your generous contributions, we were able to add five additional pots to extend the flowers throughout the entire streetscape project.

This year has been an extreme challenge with the heat. We have been watering every other day since May and fertilizing once or twice a week. We have used 6,300 gallons of water.
