Yesterday you saw the 1923 Studebaker fire truck from the rear - here's the view from the front. During Fire Prevention Week members of the Bluffton Fire Department provide rides to elementary students. Here's a look at one of those rides as the truck tooled south on Main.

It's Fire Prevention Week. Time for elementary students to ride the old Bluffton fire truck. Here are Kindergarteners in the truck on Lawn Avenue. Remember when you rode the truck?
Northwest Physical Therapy, Inc. will offer free therapy screens to the public during the month of October. These screens will be available at all four outpatient locations in Delphos, Ottawa, Bluffton and Lima.
A physical therapy screening takes approx. 10-15 minutes and will be performed by a licensed clinician. A therapy screening helps identify issues that may be causing unnecessary pain.
