The Icon visited Raymond Harner's CG Pro Bike Shop in Columbus Grove this week. The shop is an Icon advertiser and, according Harner, the shop has attracted a large number of Bluffton area customers because of advertising on The Icon.

Twelve Maple Crest residents recently took the short country drive to Columbus Grove, along with Debbie Mohr, the Maple Crest activities coordinator and Ana Carnauba, a summer assistant from Rhodes State College to visit a museum.
That sounds like an ordinary sort of outing, but as the visitors slipped through the back door of the old brick building, they were transported into the Savannah of Africa!
