Living in a small town enables one to know and interact with lots of people, directly or indirectly.

Although I always felt I knew a lot of people here, I’ve come to appreciate the history of this town and realize that I have more to learn about Bluffton’s history.

My most recent interview took me to the Diller Law Office, where I met local attorney and long-time Bluffton resident, Sam Diller. He is a man of many stories and a vast knowledge of Bluffton, so I was glad to get the chance to meet with him.

Here is Bluffton High School’s second quarter honor roll for 2015-2016 school year:

The Icon went a bit crazy on this photo on the home page. This is the real Daniel Siders playing the string bass, the largest and lowest string instument in the orchestra. He's rehearsing with the Bluffton Junior High orchestra. The Icon features members of the orchestra in our daily feature photo this week.
