Bluffton history buffs invited to monthly meeting
The yet to be named Bluffton historical organization has issued the following invitation for a 7:00 p.m., March 8 meeting on the third floor of Bluffton Town Hall.
"Items to be discussed include an official name for the group, a review of the recent visit to the Delphos Canal Commission Museum, and determining how individuals may become involved in areas that they are interested in and/or gifted in.
"For our program or sharing time, Ron Epps will display and discuss his collection of Carpenter’s Folding Measuring Rules. I’ve only seen one of them, but I was very impressed! If you have an historic item or collection you would like to present to the group, let us know.
"Please mark your calendars for our monthly meetings. Bluffton’s Town Hall third floor will be our location, unless announced otherwise, and we’ll meet the second Wednesday of each month there at 7:00 p.m."
