Ada's ghosts came out last evening and masks were part of the expected dress code. One of the popular stops was at the Ada-Liberty Township Fire and EMS station. Volunteers handed out 400 hot dogs, in their long-standing tradition. Community Markets donated the 'dogs. Ken Collins took this photo for the Icon and many more are in this series.

Ada schools will move to remote learning beginning Monday, Nov. 2, according to Meri Skilliter, superintendent.
The announcement was made today (Oct. 30) on the school website. The message to the Ada community follows:
"With our number of Covid 19 positive cases growing, and all of the quarantined students and staff we have as a result of those positive cases, we have come to the decision that it is time for Ada Schools to switch to Remote Learning.
"Because there are only three weeks and a day between now and Thanksgiving, we will be starting remote learning beginning Monday, Nov. 2 through Nov. 23.
That means several things in Ada, including a Saturday night of one extra hour of sleep. It also means that the Ada elementary school book fair will take place as will parent-teacher conferences, a blood drive, leaf pick-up and Thanksgiving.
