Dear Area Business,
The parents of the Bluffton High School Junior Class are in the process of organizing Post Prom activities for Saturday, April 30, 2011. It is the responsibility of the Junior Class parents to sponsor and conduct this event for the BHS Junior and Senior Classes.
Pavel Shekochikhin, Bluffton, and a student at Apollo Career Center, proved his skills in welding recently. He won second place in the Skills USA Welding competition. He advances to state competition. Shekochikhin is a senior in the Apollo Career Center welding program.
Bluffton University sends students abroad every year to learn about diverse cultures. But the university rarely gets to thank the hosts for those cross-cultural experiences in person.
The opportunity arose this week, though, when two visitors from Botswana came to Bluffton to see for the first time the campus and community that sent groups of students to the African nation in 2007 and 2009, and will do so again this May.
