"I forgot my gloves and I can't feel my thumb!" - Mark Smith
That's the winner caption to our most recent "write a caption to this photo" contest. The photo shows Nate Gundy with thumb in the air sitting with Brett Buller at the state semi-final boys' Division III soccer game.
Nate and Brett, both BHS soccer alums, live in Orrville and attended the game that sent Bluffton HS into the state finals.
Icon viewer Mark Smith wrote the winning caption and will receive five passes to the Shannon Theatre.

The Bluffton Center for Entrepreneurs (BCE) is hosting a Brown Bag Discussion series on topics of interest to small businesses.
The small group gatherings at town hall are designed to fit into busy schedules and allow for plenty of questions and answers. You’re welcome to bring your lunch or dinner, while the BCE provides dessert.
On Oct. 23, our conversation focused on commercial building permits, with Jesse Blackburn of the Village of Bluffton and Mike Rudey of Wood County Inspection fielding our questions.

At 7:50 a.m. Bluffton schools announced that school is cancelled for Tuesday, Nov. 12. Last night the school went on a 2-hour delay. The heavy and wet early winter snowfall is the cause.
