The Vintage Chevrolet Club of America's Western Buckeye Region (WBR) just celebrated one year since its charter. We now have 34 members and are rapidly growing.
The family of Betty Burkholder would like to honor her with a card shower in celebration of her 80th birthday, on Friday, July 23. Cards and memories may be sent to her at:
Betty Burkholder
18225 CR 15
Bluffton, OH 45817
On July 23 from 3 p.m. - 6 p.m., Betty will be sitting on the front porch for anyone who would like to drive by and honk.
We would like to thank our customers, suppliers, and road crews for their dedication and support of our business while our main entrance has been shut down. We praise the Lord for the support from all.
The new alley is a blessing and will benefit our business for years to come.
The council packet for the July 12 meeting included an update from the Streets, Lights, Alleys, and Sidewalks Committee. The committee's report includes a report of discussion surrounding street parking, speed radar signs, crack sealing, and new street name signs.
The proposed new street name sign design is a white sign with black lettering. Additional information can be found in the council packet.
On the administrator's report is a thank-you to SumiRiko volunteers who prepared twenty planting spots for trees along W. Elm Street scheduled for planting this fall.
Chassity L. Gallant, 48, passed away unexpectedly on July 8, 2021 at her residence in Bainbridge, Georgia. Arrangements are incomplete at Chiles-Laman Funeral & Cremation Services, Bluffton.
National Night Out is nearing its final planning stages and is in need of volunteers.
Bluffton's most family-oriented event of the summer returns after a one-year cancellation, according to Matt Oglesbee, Bluffton police department lieutenant, heading up the event.
The evening generally attracts upwards of 2,500 persons.
This is the 7th Bluffton NNO celebration and it takes place Tuesday, August 3, at the Bluffton Community Swimming Pool.
