Janice Shafer, resident of Vance Street Apartments, Bluffton, is the winner of the Bluffton Icon "Sweetest Day" contest. Her entry was selected as the winner of all persons nominated for the award.
She was nominated by her neice Kim Robinette, who says, "She truly is the sweetest." Janice received a large bouquet of flowers from the Icon.

“Over the next 12 to 18 months we will highlight these three areas as what we believe makes us stand out,” she said, based upon a summer planning retreat with the university cabinet.
