The 114th annual Ada High School Interclass Competition enters Day 4, the final day. Icon viewers may watch today’s contestants on the video at the bottom of this story.
Because of the no-school situation, the competition is on YouTube and may be viewed on the Icon and Ada Bulldogs Facebook. CLICK HERE to view the entire competition program.
Jeff and Julie Hunt discovered unusual guests – a fox family – in their Ada backyard on Sunday. They shared this photo with the Icon. And, just keep in mind these fox quotes: "An old fox understands the trap," and "when a fox preaches, take care of your geeses."
The following is an update from Ada school superintendent, Meri Skilliter.
We continue to miss our students terribly and understand that this situation can be a strain on everyone’s mental health.
The Mental Health and Recovery Services Board (MHRSB) of Allen, Auglaize, and Hardin Counties has worked hard to reconfigure some of their services to accommodate people during these unusual circumstances.
I wanted to share some of these services and the contact information for each one:
The Ohio Northern women's cross country team released its 2020 schedule Friday. The slate features eight meets — six in Ohio and two in Indiana — over the course of three months.
The Polar Bears begin the season with a mid-week meet. Northern will play host to the Hokum Karem Sept. 1 in a meet that will include Heidelberg and Bluffton.
The month of September will feature two more competitions. ONU will travel to Delaware for the Ohio Wesleyan Invitational Sept. 5 before competing in the All-Ohio Championships Sept. 19 in Akron.
The Kenton Hardin Health Department has been notified of a third confirmed case for COVID-19 in a Hardin County resident.
We have contacted the patient and the individuals exposed and they have been instructed to self-quarantine and monitor for symptoms. The health department will be in daily contact with these individuals for monitoring of temperatures and symptoms. No personal information about the case will be released to protect the privacy of the individual.
As Dr. Amy Acton, Director of the Ohio Department of Health continues to report, we know community spread has been occurring throughout Ohio, including our community.
