Meet the Statues of Ada-Liberty

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, September 18, 2014

Not only is the Township of Liberty alive and well. In Ada, so is the Statue of Liberty.

Just ask students who attend Ready, Set, Grow Preschool. The Icon visted the students on Wednesday, just as they dressed up as the famous statue located in a New York City harbor.

Each student has a Liberty flame, crown and message board.

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, September 18, 2014

Ohio Northern University’s Freed Center for the Performing Arts will present “The Importance of Being Earnest” from Sept. 25-27 at 7:30 p.m. There also will be two matinee performances on Sept. 27 and 28 at 2 p.m.

Oscar Wilde’s masterpiece “The Importance of Being Earnest” focuses on two bachelor friends, upper-crust dandy Algernon Moncrieff and the most reliable John Worthing J.P., who lead double lives to court the attentions of the desirable Gwendolyn Fairfax and Cecily Cardew. The gallants must then grapple with the uproarious consequences of their ruse and with the formidable Lady Bracknell.

Village Voice: Ada is the place to be this weekend

Posted by Paula Scott on Thursday, September 18, 2014

Ada is the place to be this weekend! On Saturday, Main Street comes alive the same way it does every September – the Harvest and Herb Festival hits the street. This Saturday is also Family Day at ONU, and ONU is encouraging family members to visit the community of Ada as part of the festivities. We’re not kidding; Ada is the place to be!

This weekend is a great time to show some of your Ada Pride! Please help us keep our community looking great. If you see trash on sidewalks, please pick it up and place it in the appropriate trash receptacle. If the sunshine prompts you to mow, make sure your grass clippings are not on the sidewalks or in the streets.
