Patients needing to reach primary care physicians and specialists within Blanchard Valley Health System may do so now through “telehealth,” according to Natalie Phoenix, director of emergency services at BVHS.

Bear with us - they are wild and cute

Over 70 teddy bears in Bluffton - Icon is still working on the map
Posted by Fred Steiner on April 10, 2020 - 1:36pm

Here's an update from a previous story about teddy bears in and around Bluffton.

Please, "bear" with us.

The Bluffton Icon's bear hunt will post locations over the weekend of the cuddly little guys perched in windows around town and in the countyside. 

We originally announced we'd post these on Friday – however, we now have over 70 bear sightings reported. It's taking longer than we expected, particularly because on Wednesday we had only 12 bears.
