Steve Stratton, of Stratton Greenhouses, was recognized during the 2018 America in Bloom award ceremony on Sept. 29 in Lexington, Kentucky.
He was among 16 candidates nominated by candidate communities for the John R. Holmes III Community Champion Award.
This award goes to a person who goes above and beyond for their community to make their town more livable. Steve launched the downtown Bluffton petunia flower pots project and several additional flower beautification activities in the community over the years.
Annalise Nisly, a Bluffton High School junior, is the Bluffton Icon's student artist of the month.
She has taken Art one, ceramics one and ceramics two.
" I enjoy ceramics because working with clay in my hands is calming and therapeutic to me," she said. "I especially like this project because I have a lot of creative freedom and I get to be working on one of the most fascinating ecosystems on the earth: the coral reef."
Here plans after high school include college, but specific plans are undecided. Vickie Garmon is the Bluffton HS art teacher.
