This is a series of 2017 Icon photos of Ada leaders, both in the community and university. Ada is a fortunate village to have a good relationship, at least at the present time, between the town and gown – people working together for the good of all.
This is not an exhaustive photo essay of all Ada leaders, but merely some of the movers and shakers in this town caught by the Ada Icon camera in the past year.

People must think that the people of Ada are crazy.
The Ada Icon caught many of our local residents and ONU students and employees dressed in unusual ways during the year.
Take a gander at these 2017 Ada Icon photos and judge for yourself. Have aliens landed and taken up residency in the Village of Ada?
One might think so. We begin with Joel Luecke as Mr. Banana, but he's helping with the Colleges Against Cancer at Relay for Life...or so he said. Check out some of the other outlandish Ada folks and see if you recognize them (maybe you are pictured).

The Ada Icon caught the smiles of many people in 2017.
Here are just a few of them. We had to quit reviewing photos because there were just too many smiles... can there be too many smiles?
These photos extend from January to early March. The Ada Icon cam- era caught local residents and ONU students happy doing many things: serving others, winning at sports, having fun, even working.
Are you or your friends pictured?
Check out these pictures in the attachment below to see who you recognize.

It was all Christmas for the Ada Kiwanis and Rotary on Tuesday.
Here's an Ada Christmas elf - John Berg at the Ada Kiwanis Christmas luncheon and auction held at Community Health Professionals. The meeting included Ada Rotary members as guests.
Along with the elf, in attendance was Bruce “Santa Claus” Neely.”
Many Christmas-related items were awarded to successful bidders in the club’s annual auction, according to Jon Umphress.
Kiwanis will take the holiday season off. The next meeting is at noon, Tuesday, Jan. 9, in the Dean's Heritage Room, McIntosh Center. Rhett Grant, Director of the Ada Public Library, will present the club program.
