Rediscovery of our Ada Public Library has been one of the unexpected benefits of retirement!
Thanks to the library’s Tech Support (nods to Max and now Chloe) we are now able and comfortable with accessing, downloading and reading eBooks on both Kindle (Jane) and our iPad (Rich). We are now able to take select books along on trips with only the added weight of the Kindle and iPad.
October and November in Ada – where do we begin? It takes four pages of single-space typing to tell the entire story.
It begins on Oct. 1 with a visit from the mobile dentist at Ada schools. Then, there’s the open house of the James Lehr Kennedy Engineering Building, followed by homecomings for both Ohio Northern University and Ada High School.
Don’t forget all the Halloween-related community events, library storytime with the Lima Symphony Orchestra, Ada Music Boosters Music Feast, parent-teacher conference, and concluding in late November with a breakfast with Santa at The Inn at ONU.
Darlene Bowers compiles the calendar for the Icon.
State Route 103 just east of Hancock County Road 183, between the villages of Arlington and Mount Blanchard, will close Monday, Sept. 30, for approximately five days for a culvert replacement.
Traffic will be detoured onto U.S. 68, U.S. 30, and state Route 37 back to state Route 103. Work is being performed by the ODOT Hancock County maintenance garage.
There's a high-tech repair job underway at the highest point in Ada. One of the three windmills on Klingler Road is getting new wings. Check the next photo in this series for the exact location of the work.
