Plans for the year’s Bluffton Blaze of Lights are underway. This year’s 28th annual Thanksgiving weekend event is Saturday, Nov. 29, using the theme “Happy Holidays!”
PARADE APPLICATION FORM AT BOTTOM OF STORY.
The Blaze is an event sponsored by the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce. Fred Steiner, chamber director, said, “Most people think of the Blaze as a one-evening event. It’s really the entire holiday season because several events take place until New Years.”
Saturday's Bluffton's Fall Festival was a great success. One of the contributing parties to the event are these two horses who hauled Festival-goers around town during the afternon. You'll see these two again at this year's Blaze of Lights on Nov. 29.
