Where’s the town hall? Where’s the swimming pool? Where’s the library?

This fall the chamber will create the first two of several large mounted full-color maps of Bluffton.
Each mounted map is three feet wide by two feet tall. The maps will be mounted on easy-to-read stands to be placed throughout the village. In addition, maps will be available for businesses to post inside their stores.
