Explore Bluffton visitors' guide now available in electronic format
Explore Bluffton, the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce visitors' guide to our community, is now in a flipbook form.
VIEW THE ELECTRONIC VERSION AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS STORY.
The 46-page visitors' guide was released in print form this spring. Its print form is aviailable free from any chamber member, or the Bluffton chamber office. Printed copies are distributed to area hotels, area county visitors' bureaus, all Bluffton University parents who visit campus and to groups who meet in Bluffton.
The guide includes a listing of all Bluffton businesses, a brief history of the community, photos and descriptions of events held here. In addition, this year the Bluffton map is enlarged to three pages to include the entire community from Maple Crest, Southgate Lanes and the Bluffton Airport.
The flip book version enables the chamber to post the visitors' guide on the chamber website so that persons from outside the community can have a quick overview of the community.
The flip book edition is now also on the Icon. Click on it below this story. This is the second edition of the popular visitors' guide. It will be used in 2014 and 2015. The chamber printed 10,000 copies of the guide for distribution.
