Great turnout and conditions (for most of) 2023 Ride to Remember

By Paula Scott

The 9th annual Bluffton Ride to Remember was a big day for organizers and for cyclists. The Bluffton Lions Club fundraising event brought 200+ riders together to enjoy four loops on Bluffton area roads, supported by volunteers who planned and then manned event registration and rest stops. The Bluffton community pitched in with facilities, opportunities to enjoy lunch with a discount coupon and a cinch sack full of gifts from Bluffton merchants and organizations.

Bluffton Historical Society invitation to July meeting

The Bluffton Ohio Historical Society will meet this at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 12 at Bluffton's Town Hall, third floor. There will be a business meeting and updates on the progress of bylaws, non-profit status and a discussion of artifacts acquisition.

Blufftonites certainly have memories of getting their license plates locally. For the evening's program, we will hear an interesting story from the Gromans about their father maintaining his same plate number year after year.  Those very plates will be on display. We will also hear a history of license plate distribution here in Bluffton.  There was a sequence involved in this distribution madness, and an explanation of it will also be given.
