Last weekend's "Trash Into Cash" sale, sponsored by Beyond Budgeting, was more than your typical garage sale. It was a chance for the community to shop for bargains while supporting the work of the Bluffton Community Assistance Program.
In all, over $80 was raised for the program and a large box of non-perishable food was donated at the sale.

Bluffton University's College Hall will soon have an elevator. That addition to the oldest building on campus is underway this spring. Paul Bigelow of Lima works on the foundation of the project, which extends the building into the former parking lot north of College Hall.
