When it's time to take a night time cruise around town, make certain you pick up a 2017 Blaze residential decorating tour map.
The maps are free and are available in the red mailbox on the Presbyterian Church lawn in front of the Ream holiday folk art display. The map is coordinated by Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce.
The map is also available on the chamber website - click here.
The map shows Ream and Triplett displays, residential contest entries and locations of traditional holiday neighborhoods with displays.
