The Bluffton Icon wishes its viewers a happy July 4th. Here's a patrotic post card from 1917 mailed to Werner Althaus, Bluffton native, living in Toledo at the time. The Icon will take the holiday off and we'll be back with more Bluffton news on July 5.
Here's a scene from the 1961 Bluffton centennial. It's Blanche Roberts creating a rug on her loom. Her exhibit was in the elementary multi-purpose room.
Bluffton residents have a chance to get an update on the State Route 103 corridor safety study this week. A public meeting is at 5:30 p.m., Thursday, July 6, in the town hall. (The Icon earlier incorrectly listed the meeting as taking place on Wedneday)
This is a follow-up meeting from one held in February. At that time one suggested fix resulting for the corridor totaled $10.4 million. Here's a review of the February study session report
Bluffton Public Library holds a fund-raiser for Crime Victim Services of Lima. It's a clothes swap party at 6:30 p.m., Thursday, July 13. Tickets are $7. Contact the library for more details.
