MEDIA RELEASE__Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Well, there weren’t any lions or tigers but there probably were bears (and definitely wolves) when the Swiss settlers began to arrive in the Bluffton/Pandora area.
Join us on Saturday, July 11, from 1:00-4:00 p.m. at the Schumacher Homestead and Swiss Heritage Center, 8350 Bixel Road, for a look at the critters that our Swiss ancestors had to deal with when they began to build “The Settlement.”
BPL UPDATES__The Bluffton Public Library invites readers to come and read with a dog on Friday, July 17, and Friday, July 31, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Register in advance to sit down and read for 10 minutes with a Pet Partners dog. The event is open to children and teens who attend with an adult.
