How many volunteers and how many lights does it take to make a Blaze of Lights?
At 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, November 6, the Village of Bluffton Cultural Affairs committee will lead volunteers in stringing lights on the towering evergreens at Bluffton Presbyterian Church, 112 N. Main St.
Volunteers don't have to brave the skies. They can also assist on the ground and on ladders with lights management. Stop by if you're interested in lending a hand.

Bluffton won 12 of its first 13, sandwiching six wins on each side of a December 12 loss at Transylvania. The Beavers made their 8th straight trip to the Heartland Conference tournament with all but three of those resulting in semifinal appearances.
