Congratulations Karen Brown
Karen Brown of Bluffton is this month's employee of the month at Mennonite Memorial Home.
She has worked at the Mennonite Memorial Home since January 1994. Her supervisors say that she is a great asset to the Laundry Department. Last month the laundry department found themselves short staffed and Karen rose to the occasion keeping the laundry going and giving directions to several "recruits" who came to fill in.
Karen went above and beyond making sure residents and staff had clean laundry done in a timely fashion.

Bluffton High School's girls' tennis team "won" the mythical Northwest Conference title for the second straight year with a 3-2 decision over Lima Central Catholic Monday afternoon at Harmon Courts.
BHS and LCC are the only NWC schools with girls tennis, so there is no official championship. Jess Hunter won at No. 2 singles, while the doubles teams of Ashlin Gable/Emily Sprague and Kristi Geiser/Liz Diller clinched the win.
BHS hosts Celina in a makeup match Tuesday at Harmon Courts.
