The Hardin County Astronomy Club is hosting a "First Light" viewing event on Tuesday, July 12 to celebrate that day’s unveiling of the first images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope.

The event begins at 5:00 p.m. in the Veterans Meeting Hall at the courthouse in Kenton, and all are welcome to attend.

The July 23 Bluffton Town Hall concert will welcome Jesse W. Johnson of the band Dreamjacket (Chicago). From the organizers,"Jesse has been a mainstay in the Chicago indie, rock, folk music scene for over a decade. He has a huge catalogue of biting original songs that are as timeless as they are uniquel.  He has been described as 'The Jayhawks writing the score for a David Lynch Movie.'"

Foodie Tuesday will be held at the Centre at Bluffton (601 N. Main Street Bluffton) from 4:00 to 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday July 12.

The event includes local food trucks and cold beverages inside the Centre with live entertainment from the '60s Survivors Band.

 

Bluffton’s bike rodeo is back with Officer Hope Hannah and Bike Crazy LLC providing the expertise necessary to teach riders in grades K-5 bicycling rules of the road and skills, and to check participants’ bikes for the “ABCs” of safety: Air, Brakes and Chains.
