Do you ever kick yourself for not knowing (or sharing information) about a Bluffton area event? Keep the Icon's community calendar in mind for day to day planning, as well as for promoting events and opportunities in the village and nearby locations.
Here's a quick video demonstration on how to get to and navigate the calendar.
BPL UPDATES_A program on the Newark Earthworks and historical indigenous architecture will be presented on Wednesday, July 22 @ 6:00 p.m. at the Bluffton Public Library.
The program will be presented by Sarah Hinkelman, Site Superintendent, Newark Earthworks and Flint Ridge. She will talk about historical architecture built by indigenous people over 2000 years ago. The structures are in what is now known as Newark, Ohio.
Among responses from Bluffton Icon readers to the poll "What's your top traffic safety priority?" is a request for improved pedestrian and bike safety on bridges over the creeks on Bentley/Riley St and Spring St. Days later, new striping and a sign reminding all to "Share the Bridge" was in place on Spring St. Stay tuned for poll results at the end of the month.
