The Drainage Installation Field Day scheduled for tomorrow at The Ohio State University at Lima campus farm has been moved to Tuesday, August 16, 2022, due to field conditions brought on by the recent rains in the area.
Field demonstrations by the Ohio Land Improvement Contractors of America, or OLICA, will begin at 8 a.m., Tuesday, August 16, and will continue in an open-house-style format throughout the day until 3 p.m. at the field on the corner of Thayer and Reservoir roads.
The Et Cetera Shop thrift store issued this reminder and a photo demonstrating the dedication of volunteers who unload, sort and display items for sale.
And, as this photo shows, volunteers make sure that all items are in working order.
Next open: Saturday, August 6: 9:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.
Next donation day: Tuesday from 8:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m.
Bluffton Airport has received federal funding to repave three taxiways at the 1080 Navajo Dr. facility, which will update routes used to move aircraft from hangers to the runway.
The Village of Bluffton has been awarded a $90,000 federal grant from the FAA’s Airport Improvement Program for paving some 4/10th of a mile of taxiways. This grant follows the $1.1 million award that resulted in complete repaving of the runway in 2020-2021. Grants are made to ensure passenger safety and to support local economies.
