The Theme for the Chamber of Commerce Discovery Day in June is music.
In keeping with that theme, the Senior Center has dedicated its window display to its Golden Swingers Band.
The band performed from 1979 to 2006. It was Vera Core’s idea to form a band and she served as the first director. Other directors included Carol Lytle, Betty Hitchcock and Bertie Swank.
Practices were held every Tuesday and there were times when the band had three engagements in one day. All told, they completed over 1,000 programs.
The Bluffton Public Library Board of Trustees will hold its regular meeting at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 22, via video conferencing. To request an invitation for the meeting, please contact Jessica Hermiller, Director at [email protected].
Elder Victim Ministry, a program of Crime Victim Services, will provide Put up Your Guard against Scams packets in area agencies serving the elder population. The program is funded by a Cares Act grant.
The packets include a grocery bag, pen, notepad and a scam tips card to place by the phone or refrigerator.
The school year is over and the Bluffton University bookstore in Marbeck Center is now open to the public, according to Janine Paul, store manger. Among items available include these beavers that you can't buy anywhere else.
