BOIL WATER ADVISORY ENDED AT NOON, SEPTEMBER 17.

From the Village of Ada:

The Ada water system has experienced a water line break in the 400 block of Liberty Street with a loss of water pressure for all of Liberty Street.

The Village has issued a BOIL ADVISORY until further notice.

Water used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation should be boiled for 3 minutes and let cool before use. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience while we work to resolve this problem. For more information, please contact the Village of Ada at 419-634-4045.

Singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” in an empty NFL stadium in 2020 was still a dream. This time around, Ohio Northern University’s V.P. for Student Affairs Adriane Thomson Bradshaw, Ph.D., will be belting out the same patriotic number in the same place, but to a packed house for the Cleveland Browns’ home opener this Sunday, Sept. 19. The team will take on the Texans at 1 p.m. EST.

Thompson-Bradshaw, a Cleveland native, is known for her musical acumen, which she honed as a child during church services and has continued to cultivate over the years. In 1987, she formed ONU’s Gospel Ensemble. She calls singing “one of the passions of my life.”

The Ada golf team competed in a four-team Northwest Conference match Monday evening, September 14, at the Delphos Country Club course.

League power Lincolnview won convincingly with 169 strokes, followed by Crestview (187), host Delphos Jefferson (190) and Ada (208).

Bulldog senior Andrew Rush led Ada with a solid round of 48. Junior Geddes Klingler was right behind him in second for Ada with a 49. 

Senior Dexter Woods carded a 52, and classmate Kamron Wilkerson shot a 59 to round out the Ada scorers.

Sophomore Jack Baumgartner registered a 63, and freshman Wyatt Ferguson shot a 67.
