Letters

    Have you ever stumbled upon something quite by accident, then over a period of time realized you found something worthwhile, something life changing. I am a Bluffton High School parent who has found that something! My son came to us his sophomore year expressing an interest in joining the Bluffton High School wrestling team. Being a parent of a numerous amount of children and just wrapping up a busy soccer/football season, my husband and I groaned at the idea. We knew nothing about wrestling and figured it would mean weekends of traveling with nothing to gain. At the end of our son’s sophomore year of wrestling, after a few losses (including close to 20 pounds), much more character, strength and confidence were gained. We apologized, and said to our son that it was one of the best decisions he ever made. For once, we were glad he did not listen to us.

Dear Editor,

The American Legion Post 382 would like to thank all of our sponsors for their generous donations for our 2nd Annual Golf Tournament. Without these donors we would not be able to support the charities listed below.
   
A big thank you to all of our sponsors for their continued support of the Bluffton American Legion and the charities we support.
   
100 percent of the net proceeds went to the following charities:
Project Wounded Warriors, Ohio American Legion Scholarship, Veterans Honor Flight of Northwest Ohio, Allen County Veterans Food Pantry, Bluffton Boy Scouts Troop #256, Buckeye Girls State, Post Oratorical Contest, Bluffton Food Pantry, Bluffton Baseball, Bluffton Girl Scouts and Allen County Blue Star Mothers.

Sincerely,
All members of the Bluffton American Legion Post 382

On behalf of the West Central Ohio Autism Community, the Center for Autism and Dyslexia, and Bittersweet at Betty's Farm, we would like to thank all those who helped us with our first annual walk-a-thon in April at Bluffton University.   In spite of the weather, it was a big success.

We especially want to thank the Findlay businesses of Community Market, Dietsch Brothers, Huston Financial, Beyond Software, and Bluffton Community Market for supporting this fund raiser. The money will be used for our annual conference, office administration and support group activities.
 
Only through your willingness to help did our event achieve the success it did. Thank you so much!
 
Becky Pescosolido
President
