Chamber spring festival in the park from 1-3 Saturday

Petetanque and lots more is coming to Ada on Saturday. 

Pronounced petɑ̃k, the game is a form of boules where the goal is, while standing inside a starting circle with both feet on the ground, to throw hollow metal balls as close as possible to a small wooden ball called a cochonnet (literally "piglet") or jack.
Confused? Don't be.

The Zanesfield Petanque Club is coming to Ada's War Memorial Park from 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday during the Ada Area Chamber of Commerce's first-ever spring event.

An Ada third grader can tell you lots about trees - just ask one

Story and photos submitted by the Ada Tree Commission

One of the cool things about being in the 3rd grade at Ada Elementary School is the annual Arbor Day Celebration. 

Each spring, the volunteers on the Ada Tree Commission visit the 3rd graders to talk a little about trees. The commissioners share stories about trees, wildlife, and how to plant the bare root tree each student receives from the Tree Commission. 

Tree Commissioners also talk to the students about what it means to be a Tree City USA, as Ada has been named for 32 years, and what it means for Ohio Northern University to be a Tree Campus USA, as ONU has been named for four years.
