God smiled on our 2011 Bluffton Sesquicentennial. For nine days we had good weather and four years of work proved to be a very successful event.

Thank you to each and everyone who assisted our Sesquicentennial Committee.

Do you think in 150 years our successors will honor us as we have our ancestors? Hopefully we will prove worthy.

Beverly Amstutz
Director, Sesquicentennial Committee
