Where are you right now?
Rochester Hills, MI

Tell me about your job.
I am a sales account manager for Falken Tire.  I sell passenger, light truck and commercial (semi) tires to wholesalers and retail stores in Eastern Canada (Ontario to the Eastern Seaboard) and in the US (OH, KY, WV, PA & western NY).  My job is mobile so when I am not traveling to meet with clients, I can typically be found working from my home office or occasionally from Common Grounds!

To the community of Bluffton,

On behalf of Troop 256, I would like to thank all the people who donated to the Bluffton Food Pantry during our Scouting for Food event. On March 23rd, scouts put out bags on people’s doors around Bluffton. On March 30th, Scouts collected the bags filled with food. We collected around 120 bags that contained 850 items. If your bag was missed or you did not get a bag, you can call Mike Metzger at 419-235-5654 to still donate. Again, thank you for all the support in this year’s food drive.

Sincerely,

Kaden Reneker

Bluffton Trinity United Methodist Church will host a live auction of talents at 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 5, at the Jenera Park building.

 

The event is the first of many planned to support a new outreach group, Project Hope of Bluffton, which is focused on helping community members in need.

Auction items include:

Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, in conjunction with the University of Wisconsin, has again compiled County Health Rankings, a tool they have developed so that counties can see how their health ranks with that of others in the state. Ohio and county data are now on the County Health Rankings website: www.countyhealthrankings.org. These rankings have been released annually since 2010.

The Impressions & Stingers of Cory-Rawson High School will present Cabaret 2014 at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 4, and Saturday, April 5, at the Cory-Rawson High School auditorium.

Tickets are $7.00 for adults and $5.00 for students; they are only available at the door. Refreshments will be served at intermission and a silent auction will take place both nights. This event is the major fundraiser for the group.

Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church will hold a Lenten service at 7:00 p.m., Wednesday, April 2, at the church, 301 N. Main Street, Jenera. “From Garden to Glory” continues as the theme for the Lenten services.

Vicar Billy King from Immanuel Lutheran Church, Findlay, will preach on “The Garden of Passion” based on Luke 22:39-44 and the choir will sing “Go to Dark Gethsemane.”

The Ladies’ Aid will serve a chili supper from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Everyone is welcome and the church is handicapped accessible.  More information is at tlcjenera.org.
