Last year's show had 60 booths and this year should have that many or more. The show, which is a chamber fundraiser, is held on Main Street from the town hall to the farmers market (Citizens National Bank parking lot).

You are not in Bluffton anymore. However, that's Dave Sycks, Bluffton band director on the podium.

In late March the Bluffton Junior High Band traveled to Riverdale for an exchange concert.

"The day was spent rehearsing with each other's band director, rehearsing on our own, rehearsing together, playing some 'get to know you' games and performing a joint concert for Riverdale's elementary students," said Sycks.

The Riverdale director is Beth Voll, also from Bluffton.
