This weekend is Bluffton University's turn for homecoming; here's the schedule

“New Beginnings” is the theme for Homecoming, which will kick off Saturday with the launch of a new book at The Lion and Lamb Peace Arts Center. From 9-10:30 a.m., visitors may stop by the center for a reception with Lisa Weaver and 2013 Bluffton alumna Amanda Huston, the author and illustrator, respectively, of “Swords to Plowshares,” a children’s book published by the center. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing.

Did you decorate a pumpkin?

Or, did you ride a horse-pulled wagon, view a quilt show, attend a small business expo, ride a kid's train, bid on a silent auction item?

Did you pet a farm animal, watch horses plow a field, play a old-fashion kid's game, eat ham off the fire, or did you attend an antique tractors show?
