Ada fourth and fifth grade music classes will perform "Lights! Camera! Christmas!" twice on Thursday, Dec. 4.
According to Lori Wilson director, "The kids decide it is time to make an amazing movie about the one and only Santa Claus, but what style of movie should we use? How about an epic extravaganza like Cecil B. DeMille? Adventure film like Steven Spielberg? A Spaghetti Western might be fun. How will we decide?"
Performances are at 1:15 p.m. and again at 7 p.m. in the Ada school auditorium. Doors open 30 minutes prior to each show.
Ada Icon viewers are invited to Bluffton on Saturday to watch the 100-plus unit parade (which includes the Ada High School homecoming queen Allison Howard). The event is the 28th annual Bluffton Blaze of Lights.
Several events are planned around the parade. Here's the schedule:
