"Members of the Bluffton Senior Center may have spent a lot of time snowbound this winter, but that just gave them more time to make beautiful hand crafted items for the Senior Center Store," according to Tonya Meyer, director.
She said that the Senior Center has carried American Girl doll clothes and now also have Bitty Baby doll clothes and Barbie doll cloths as well as doll clothes of all sizes.
"Bring your doll in and we will help you find something that fits," she said.

Looking to make new Friends and urge others to renew their pledge, the Friends of the Bluffton Public Library are pounding the pavement during their annual membership drive.
To get the word out, the Friends will be posting flyers throughout the village and have stocked the library with brochures showing how they have helped the library in 2010.
Highlights of the year include raising $2,800 in fundraisers and donations, and pledging $1,350 to support young adult and children's services in 2011.
