Three separate grants make up The R.L. and Etta L. Triplett Foundation’s 2022 grant distribution, which totals $4,700, according to Tomm Triplett, foundation board president.

This year’s distribution includes $2,000 for a scholarship given to Olivia McCamery, $1,375 to Bluffton Family Recreation and $1,375 to the Bluffton Senior Citizens Association.

In late May, Mr. Armstrong’s and Mrs. Raeburn's third grade classes at Bluffton Elementary School were taken to Sauder Village in Archbold by bus driver Larry Diller.

This was Diller's very last field trip assignment. He has now retired from bus driving, after 12 years of service to the Bluffton Exempted Village Schools district.
