We doubt if this avid fisherman has a Bluffton Sportsmen's Club fishing permit. But,who is going to challenge him? This great blue heron is a frequent fisherman in the Riley this summer. This photo was taken between the Grove Road and Bentley Road bridges.
On June 1 major changes occur in Bluffton’s recycling and refuse pick up procedure. One of the most noticeable changes is that new recycling and refuse carts are being delivered to residents.
The new system enables customers to now recycle glass and more plastic (numbers 1 to 7). Previously glass was not accepted and pastic was limited.
If swimming is your thing in the summer, you’ll be happy to know that you may now follow the Bluffton Community Swimming Pool on Twitter.
Jamie Mehaffie, village administrator, told The Icon that pool patrons may now follow the pool at “Bluffton Pool.” The pool managers will provide updates on pool activities, closing and conditions.
Also this year, patrons will notice a few changes at the pool. There is a new four-square and hop-scotch area, for example.
While the weather may not cooperate, the pool is ready to official open this weekend.
The 2013 Bluffton Memorial Day observance was held in the Middle School cafetorium because of a continual light rain on Monday morning. The Icon offers three videos of the ceremony.
A rainy Memorial Day moved Bluffton's observance inside. The event, conducted by the Bluffton American Legion Post 382 was held in the Bluffton middle School. Watch for videos.
