Nice story on old man Bluffton.So start a list/a section. Things to work on to improve divided by sections. In any town there are a lot of small things that can be done to make things better.
• Easy/inexpensive things to change
• More difficult things to change to improve
• Grand plans/strategies: Long term goals
• Let residents have their input and recommendations.
Keep track of what they recommend and what is accomplished. Keep chipping
away on the list.
Hate wrapping presents? Not sure how to wrap that weirdly shaped gift? Tired of fighting with the scotch tape?
The Cory-Rawson Impressions will hold a gift wrapping fundraiser in the new cafeteria at Cory-Rawson Elementary School from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 20.
They also encourage parents to bring their children along, because they'll have Christmas movies playing in the choir room while the gifts are being wrapped.
There is no charge for gift wrapping, but donations would be extremely appreciated.

Old Man Bluffton stopped in for a visit last Saturday. Since he retired to some place south of the Mason-Dixon Line – he won’t tell me where – I never know when to expect him. He looked good, though.
(I think he lives in Bluffton, South Carolina.)
Usually he makes a December trip here to pick up the usual Bluffton-made products for Christmas gifts.
You know, peanut brittle, Bluffton Icon coffee and the latest Bluffton Pirate and Bluffton Beaver sports ware.
