ACT NOW - THE PLAYING CARDS MAY BE HISTORY ON JAN. 1
If you've not yet purchased a Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce playing card desk, act now or forever hold your peace.
The popular holiday item at only $5 a deck may disappear quicker than you can say 2010. The deck was the brainchild of Melinda Bowden of PromoHits! The Main Street company sold 52 businesses their own "card." Then, when the decks were printed, PromoHits! donated over 300 sets to the chamber as a fund raiser.
Among the many Christmas weekend guests to Bluffton was the driver of this vehicle parked in a driveway on Albert Street. The NC plate promotes the Blue Ridge Parkway, a major tourist feature on the western portion of the state.
QUADS showed up in Bluffton on Dec. 29. It was parked on Elm Street near the town hall. Perhaps its driver was taking in a dinner on Main Street. QUADS is a Hancock County plate with a Heidelberg College logo on the plate. Readers are invited to help us identify the driver.
