The Bluffton community enjoyed a mild morning of sunshine and gentle breezes for 2025 Memorial Day events hosted by the Bluffton American Legion Post 382, commemorating and honoring those who sacrificed their lives in U.S. military service.
The Bluffton Disc Golf Association, which plays at the Bluffton Hospital Disc Golf Course at Village Park on County Line Rd., has kicked off its summer 2025 season.
We regret to inform you that the scheduled opening of the Bluffton Community Pool will be delayed. The delay is due to a variety of conditions, that include limitations presented by spring weather, while performing over $120,000 of renovations to the pool bottom and piping infrastructure that were started over 5 weeks ago.
MAY 9 FACEBOOK__Bluffton's Community Garden has just 3 large plots and 4 raised bed plots left for the 2025 season.
If you've ever wanted to grow some big sprawling watermelon, or pumpkin vines, or maybe you've wanted to grow a large batch of tomatoes & peppers for canning, or an even bigger batch flowers for lots of flower arrangements, then renting a plot at the Community Garden may be the solution.
Contact us if you want to garden in a full sun location. When they are booked, that's it until 2026.
Editor's note: A bin for donations has been placed in the lobby of the Bluffton Post Office on Friday, May 9. Mail carriers will pick up donations on their routes on Saturday, May 10.
