The Bluffton Police Department, in conjunction with the Pandora Police Department, and participation from Bluffton, Beaverdam-Richland Township and Pandora Fire and EMS Departments threw a party - and everyone came.

Were there more than 2,500 who attended? Probably.
From time to time, the Icon features stories on its advertisers. We recently had a chat with Cindy Luginbuhl, who has a Business Card on the Icon. Here’s what we learned about Rodan+Fields.
Cindy Luginbuhl says that she’s always enjoyed helping people.
Five years ago, her then-high-school-age daughter developed a case of acne. Cindy started her on a Rodan+Fields skin care product. The results sold Cindy on the product and she eventually became an independent consultant for the company.
FROM THE ALLEN COUNTY SHERIFF - The Allen County Sheriff’s Office has an open investigation regarding a scam that occurred in Beaverdam.
The victim reported she was contacted by someone using the phone number 202-455-5956 who claimed to be from the Legal Affairs Department and accused her of tax fraud.
The victim reported she told the caller she had not received any paperwork regarding this. A short time later and while still speaking with the man on the phone there was a knock on her door.
Sundown is upon us and a slow freight train is trotting on the rails through Bluffton on a hot summer evening. The local freight will return on its round trip at about 10 p.m.
