A weekend full of several events is on Bluffton's calendar Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 4-5. Here's a capsule of events:
SATURDAY
Et Cetera Shop "Back to school sale"
Bluffton's Et Cetera Shop, 111 S. Main St., will hold a "back to school sale," from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 4. The sale features a "kid's overflowing clothing sale," Chrissy Lugibihl, store manager, told The Icon.
All clothing is $1 each, or $7 for a bag. The sale will be set up in the alley between Et Cetera and Edward Jones.
Here's a look at the Riverbend neighborhood from several hundred feet in the air. Brion Rhodes took this photo during a hot air balloon ride reported yesterday on The Icon. Watch next week for more aerial views of Bluffton taken during Rhodes' trip.
Two public spaces in Bluffton University's soon-to-be-completed Sommer Center for Health and Fitness Education will be named for two couples who provided substantial financial support and volunteer leadership for "Extending Our Reach-The Campaign for Bluffton," which funded the new building.
