The Ada Community Improvement Corp. “Community Highlights” calendar is back. In late 2012 Ruth Roider retired from creating the bi-monthly calendar.

The Ada Icon offered to continue this valuable community service, and the CIC accepted the Icon’s offer. The March-April version of the calendar was sent to CIC members and others on the CIC e-mail list yesterday.

A copy of the Highlights is an attachment found at the bottom of this story.

Angela Polachek, of the Village of Ada said, “In an effort to get an even wider distribution of the information in the Highlights, CIC wants to try something a little different.”
