Ryan Golden, a senior from Findlay, is Bluffton University’s sixth recipient of a full scholarship to Bowling Green State University’s master of accountancy program.
Note from Icon: Old Man Bluffton, retired and now world traveler, shows up in Bluffton briefly each December. If he’s in the mood, he allows the Icon to interview him.
Earlier this week the Icon met him in Twisted Whisk and he was in the mood – although the Icon bought the coffee. Here’s a paraphrase of our conversation.
Riley Creek Baptist Church, 4950 Township Road 27, Bluffton, invites the public to its Christmas program, “The Advent of Emmanuel,” at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 17.
The program will consist of a play telling the story of “Lydie” as she comes to understand the true meaning of Christmas, along with a number of musical selections and parts for children of the congregation. Everyone is welcome. For more information call 419-326-6361.
Bluffton was without a pharmacy on Saturday. The big switch from Greg's Pharmacy, owned by Clark's RX, to CVS Pharmacy took place over the weekend. The pharmacy at 126 N. Main St., reopened Monday morning under new ownership.
“Everyone who pre-orders a book as a Christmas gift will receive a card stating the book is on its way after Christmas,” said Steiner. “That way, the gift-giver has something to present on Christmas morning.”
Production issues have delayed the printing of the Icon’s book “The Bluffton We Never Knew,” according to Fred Steiner.
