The Easter Bunny will make a special visit to your house. It can happen any time from now to Saturday, April 3 – the day before Easter Sunday.
All you need to do it ask. The visit is a fundraiser by the St. Mary’s Catholic Church youth. Proceeds are used for summer camp.
The Bunny will hop to your house, deliver a goody bag and then you can take a photo of the Bunny with your family. All this for a $25 donation to the church youth group.
And, the Bunny’s range is to residences within a 10-mile radius of Bluffton.

An eye opening statistic was recently reported by Harvard Health.
They reported that the number of deaths associated with COVID-19 in the United States has surpassed the deaths from World War I, the Vietnam War, and the Korean War combined.
This pandemic has had a tragic impact on illness, deaths and economies around the world. Many of the long-term consequences of COVID-19 may be felt for years to come.
Bluffton University freshman Montez Archer Jr. (Detroit, Mich./Martin Luther King) has been named the HCAC Player of the Week for the third straight time on March 23.

Archer returned six kickoffs for 190 yards on Saturday, including a 78-yarder at the end of the first quarter that set up Bluffton's first touchdown.
