An invitation to veterans from Cory Rawson Schools:

Cory-Rawson Local Schools are honored to invite all veterans and a spouse or guest to our Veterans Day Program on Monday, November 6, 2023.  The program is a combined effort of Cory-Rawson’s students and staff and is our way of saying “thank you” for the service and sacrifices our veterans have made in peacetime and in war.

As the days get shorter and cooler, community members should be aware that multiple infectious diseases will be more prevalent, including COVID-19, influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). If you are someone who always gets vaccinated, here’s a reminder that this is the time of year to do so. And, if you aren’t, now could be a great time to start.

Letter to the editor from the Bluffton Ride to Remember Committee.

The Bluffton Ride to Remember Committee and the Lion’s Club and Foundation want to thank all who helped to make the 2023 Ride to Remember a great success. We especially want to thank the Bluffton Community Church for welcoming the Ride to begin and end at its church on Main Street, Bluffton. The facilities were excellent and the members of the church were very welcoming. 

It is our sincere hope that members of the Ohio legislature realize the importance and significance of the “NO” vote on Issue #1 on August 8, 2023. The citizens of Ohio said they want their voice heard in regards to state policies, laws and constitution.

We want elected officials who will work for the public good, not the party good!

I enjoyed reading of the recent Dillinger robbery reenactment. I am reading through the old Bluffton News online and found this about the auction of some furnishings from the Citizens Bank. Wonder where these furnishings are now that probably were in the bank at the time of the robbery.

Letter to the editor from Josh Tattrie of Bluffton, Ohio in response to the Icon's July 13 article.

On 6/22/23 (Police Report # 2023-00003850) I was hit (t-boned) at the intersection of 103 and County Line. I was hospitalized and spent 3 days in the ICU. I was initially transported to the Bluffton ER and then the Findlay ER. I had internal bleeding on my brain. I cannot find where my accident was made public in the docket. Can you explain why?
