We understand that opening day for baseball in Cincinnati is an unofficial holiday in that city.
The Icon stringer, Anne Steiner of Cincinnati, did like most people in the Queen City. She took the day off. She also and took photos of the 98th annual opening day parade.
The parade had 189 entries including lots of famous faces! Reds Hall-of-Famer Sean Casey was the parade Grand Marshal.
Cincinnati lost to Philadelphia in the season opener 4-3.
Here are some photos of the parade for Icon viewers.
This fashionable gentleman, well call him Fred, is sporting an Ada Icon cap.
The challenge, dear reader, is to guess where you'll find him.
Hint: you'll see him inside a business on South Main.
Answer. Fred helps keep store with Ruth Roider at Gallery for the Arts. Ruth won the Ada Icon cap at a recent Chamber of Commerce monthly meeting. (Monty Siekerman photo)

The Ada Icon, in cooperation with the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications, University of Kansas, invites Icon viewers to participate in a viewer survey.
The survey, designed by the School of Journalism, will assist the Icon in improving its website. It also assists the School of Journalism in its own study of web-based news sources.

Don Traxler, retired education prof and former mayor, leads cheers at the basketball game on Saturday at King-Horn.
The Lady Bears are without cheerleaders, so Don took it upon himself to get the crowd vocally behind the local team during their Elite 8 game. He attends many athletic contests at ONU throughout the year. (Monty Siekerman photo)
