You might call Joe Sehlhorst a true "man about town." He seems to be everywhere. Sehlhorst earlier this month added one more line to his hometown resume when he joined Bluffton council on Jan. 9.

He credits his family as a major reason that he sought the office, but we all know it's lots more than that.

"My great uncles, Bob, Gene and Jim Benroth always took pride in Bluffton. I knew it was home and I wanted to get involved," he said. "Politics in Bluffton is more of a town pride thing."
