It’s the club’s annual mulch sale. While the sale starts April 27, club members are taking orders now, so don’t wait.
All proceeds go to the club’s scholarship fund. Since 2000 the club has awarded $75,590 in scholarship money as a result of the sale, according to Chad Hays of the club.
Here’s the details:
Mulch can be picked up Saturdays after 8 a.m. at Bass Trucking 0410 State Route 81, Ada. Deliveries are available on Saturdays only.
Mulch cost:
• Brown mulch: $30 per Bobcat scoop

Ohio Northern University sisters of Kappa Alpha Theta will hold its annual Easter egg hunt at 12:30 p.m., Sunday, April 14, near the playground at the Ada War Memorial Park.
"The event is open to youth ages 3 to 12," said Cortney Kiser of the event planning committee. "Bring your families out to enjoy the hunt, meet the Easter bunny and potentially win a special Easter raffle basket."
When the white magnolia blooms in the Ada railroad depot park it signals that warm weather is on the way. Soon the tree's blooms will completely block the red caboose from this view of the park.
