Message to Icon viewers:

Thank you for your continued support of The Bluffton Icon. Over the Fourth of July weekend we are in the process of switching servers and upgrading our service. Please have a little patience as this process takes place. At the moment, we've successfully switched most of our modules. We are still working on our photos. Because of that we've not added new photos recently. Please stay tuned. You'll see new photos soon!

We encourage viewers to continue to e-mail us material.

Keith Jeffers info about Dan Lehman

Posted by Fred Steiner on July 4, 2010 - 6:52am

Icon viewer and former Bluffton resident Keith Jeffers sent us the following update on Dan Lehman, another former Bluffton resident: Here goes Keith's note:

Dear Fred, Thought this might be of interest to the Icon...Dan Lehman is giving some green time in the Gulf utilizing his skills as a boat captain to help clean up the BP oil mess.

Also, it would be my suggestion to make it a bit easier for people to submit old photos and stories about Blluffton to the Icon for your consideration of publication.
