It's only the beginning

Attached are some photos from the Bluffton Public Library Fun Day on June 4. It was a huge success.
Every Summer Program kick off event brings several hundred, and we think this year was the largest crowd we've seen for a Kick Off.
Among popular events were the involvement for the Touch-a-Truck and llamas as we had Hard Rock Llama Co., a Bluffton Exempted School District school bus and Bobcat, the Bluffton EMS, fire truck, police vehicles, and someone even brought a motorcycle.
We also had the Wild Steelions youth steel drum performance and people were dancing along, or even setting up chairs so they could stay and enjoy it.
This is only the start of the Summer Program and we have a ton of other activities for the community throughout the summer.
