Dear Editor,

The Ada Kiwanis Club would like to thank the Ada community for their support of the club’s 61st annual Pancake and Sausage Day held on March 23rd. 

This year marked a change in both date and venue as the fundraiser was held on a Saturday at the Ada Exempted Village School cafeteria. 

The event was a huge success as we served over 570 people. 

A special thank you goes out to the Ada Exempted Village School for the use of their kitchen and cafeteria.
