The Bluffton Rotary Club hosted Lindsey Widener from BlufftonHigh School as guest speaker on Wednesday, November 5th. Although Widener originally hails from Ohio, she has been in Bluffton for five years now and is the Advisor for the new BlufftonHigh School monthly publication, Cat Chat. The first volume of the Cat Chat newspaper came out in October; we were treated to copies of the 2nd issue for November.

 Run totally by the students, the paper is free to students and staff and the focus is to provide a way for students to feel part of the community.

 

"It's a great forum for the kids" and working on the Cat Chat paper can provide "some great life lessons", said Widener. The students working on the paper do everything to produce the paper, from selling ads to writing the articles.

 

Students are selling ads for the Cat Chat; if you are interested in supporting this venture, placing an ad is a great way to help.
