Two new special pieces make this year's Blaze of Lights very special. One is the premier performance of "Deck the Farm." Another is First National Bank’s “Kasasa Gift-For-Good Exchange.”
On Saturday Bluffton celebrates its favorite holiday - The Blaze of Lights. Sponsored by the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce, this is the 27th annual Blaze.
We like to think that Bluffton’s many shops create the best Christmas decorated downtown of any small town in Ohio.
In addition to the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce’s residential lighting contest, a separate contest takes place for 41 downtown businesses.
The downtown contest operates differently from the residential contest. Competition downtown involves any business that has Christmas garland purchased two years ago through the chamber garland project.
