Bluffton cyclist Everett Collier takes lots of bike rides around the block, and this summer that block extends for 3,600 miles.
Collier will participate in the 7th annual Fuller Center Bike Adventure. It’s a bike ride from Atlantic City, New Jersey, to Astoria, Oregon. The ride starts June 5 and finishes on Aug. 10 – with several stops along the way where bikers will assist in building projects with Fuller Center covenant partners.
As of the of March Collier had raised over $6,000 for his efforts in the trip.
The Bluffton Lions have a busy month planned in April. One of the events is a banquet honoring Richard Ramseyer as Lions Citizen of the Year. The banquet is April 15 at First Mennonite Church.
All Lions Club events are posted in the April newsletter attached at the bottom of this story.
Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio (MHCO) and Jerry Lewis’ McDonald’s will host their annual Easter egg hunt at 10 a.m. sharp, Saturday, April 12, at Mennonite Memorial Home, 410 W. Elm St., Bluffton.

Doughnuts are donated by Community Markets and hot beverages will be provided by MHCO.
Tell me about your job.
I am a sales account manager for Falken Tire. I sell passenger, light truck and commercial (semi) tires to wholesalers and retail stores in Eastern Canada (Ontario to the Eastern Seaboard) and in the US (OH, KY, WV, PA & western NY). My job is mobile so when I am not traveling to meet with clients, I can typically be found working from my home office or occasionally from Common Grounds!
