Tuesday, June 10, is the first of the Bluffton Library's "Summer Jams."
According to Charlie Saylor, "We'll begin at around 6 p.m., but as we are hoping to be outside on the lawn, we may have a later quitting time than in the past. If the weather looks like it will cooperate, bring a chair, stool, or whatever suits you for sitting and picking, or comfortable listening and relaxing outside."
