The flurry of building Bike-Pedestrian Pathways on the east side of Bluffton has resulted in two great new pathways. We will celebrate the County Line Path next Tuesday.
Please join us at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 3, 2024, as we dedicate the Lions Way County Line Path. The ceremony will take place in front of the Bluffton Child Development Center along County Line Road. Signs will direct you to parking.
NOTE: The Vine St. stages will be open later than neighborhood locations. If any players want to join there, it will be open to audience participation.
