Featuring a sixth grade newscast on WBGU TV

Somewhere in Bluffton's attic this classic video emerged. You won't want to miss it.

Created in 1981 by WBGU TV, it features a newscast presented by Bluffton sixth graders, who at the time, attended classes in Beaverdam. 

Featured in the video are students John Friesen, Annette Herr, Tina Herr, Sonia Weaver and Sheri Badertscher.

News features in the program include the Bluffton College science center, Lois Wetherill, the Bluffton News and Dr. B.W. Travis model railroad.

So far, they have walked approximately 62 miles and their next stop  – Lima. 

Ryan is from South Lebanon and Eric is from Dayton. They began their journey at the Ohio/Michigan border and are walking to the Ohio River.
