Here's what you need to know about I-75 and U.S. 30 road work for the week beginning Sept. 16 as it affects local traffic patterns.

Interested in owning a piece of Bluffton church musical history?
The organ in the “old” St. Mary’s Catholic Church could be yours. It has rested in a garage since the mid-1960s and needs a new home, according to its current caretaker, Betty Pakosz of Sylvania.
Older Bluffton residents will identify Betty as the daughter of Rita Hankish, who grew up in Bluffton, over a half-century past.
This summer Betty contacted the Icon, inquiring if we could assist finding a new home of the organ.
The Icon's poetic license is not limited to Ohio plates. Here's one we spotted recently on a Virginia vehicle. We've translated it for viewers: UVA (University of Virginia), HSC (Hampden-Sydney College). The coat of arms is Hampden-Sydney's, a men's school in Virginia.
