Some 75 hardy souls ventured into single-digit temperatures Saturday morning for the Chilly Chili Run at the Ouabache State Park. Laurie Baumgartner, sports coordinator of the Bluffton Parks and Recreation Department, said there were quite a few no-shows — people who had registered but did not participate — due to the cold and snow.
