3-14 means its National Pi Day

Some math student eat pies, some engineering students simply throw pies

Anyone with math on the brain knows that today is National Pi Day. March 14…pi R Squared. Remember that from your high school geometry class?

If you are still wondering, the formula used to determine the circle's radius is r = C / 2. Pi is a mathematical constant representing the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, and is approximately equal to 3.14 – thus March 14 (3-14). Get it now?

It’s also a day restaurants celebrate.

But, in Ada two celebrations took place. One at Ada High School. The other in the Engineering Department at Ohio Northern.

The Ada Barnyard Farmers 4-H Club held our second meeting of the year on Sunday, March 10.
