Bluffton Police Department’s K9 Kato will receive a bullet and stab protective vest thanks to a charitable donation from non-profit organization Vested Interest in K9s, Inc., according to Ryan Burkholder, Bluffton police chief.
K9 Kato’s vest will be embroidered with the sentiment “In memory of K9 Ty, California City Police Department.” Delivery is expected within eight to 10 weeks.

Part 6 of the Icon's recycling series
Where can you take items that your curbside recycling will not take? There are a surprising number of items that are recyclable, which Bluffton's curbside recycling service does not currently accept.
Here is a list of the more common items that can be recycled elsewhere:
Bluffton High School's opening football schedule sounds like a Willie Nelson song "On the road again." The season opener was at Cory-Rawson. Tonight the Pirates travel to Van Buren. Then, on Sept. 7, BHS has its home opener against Ayersville. Here's a view of the Pirate fans last week at C-R. (Marvin Foster photo)
