Show Ada pride this weekend

Posted by Reema Bazzy on Thursday, September 19, 2013

Ada is the place to be this weekend! Saturday, Main Street comes alive the same way it does every September – the Harvest and Herb Festival hits the street.

This Saturday is also Family Day at ONU, and ONU is encouraging family members to visit the community of Ada as part of the festivities. We’re not kidding; Ada is the place to be!

This weekend is a great time to show some of your Ada Pride! Please help us keep our community looking great. If you see trash on sidewalks, please pick it up and place it in the appropriate trash receptacle. If the sunshine prompts you to mow, make sure your grass clippings are not on the sidewalks or in the streets.
