Due to growing concerns about the COVI-19 virus and in light of the recent order for Ohioans to “stay home,” the Radio Day for United Way of Hardin County has been postponed with a tentative date of April 18.
"United Way is extremely grateful for the donors of auction items and volunteers for this event and look forward to the fundraising event for a great cause," said Phyllis Griffith of the United Way.

Here is the March 25 community update from Ada Schools.
Yesterday was the first day, I think, where the Governor’s press conference didn’t impose a change or tweak to what schools are doing. So, we didn’t do a community update.
But, today I wanted to share a few things that may be helpful. We are awaiting word, hopefully next week, as to whether this closure is to be extended (which I personally believe is likely), and thus we will begin to communicate our plans moving past April 3.
In the meantime, here are some items I hope are helpful:

The State of Ohio announced on March 23 that Ohio will be under a "Stay at Home" order.
The order went into effect beginning Monday, March 23,, at 11:59 p.m. and will remain in effect until 11:59 p.m. on April 6, unless the order is rescinded or modified.
"We haven't faced an enemy like we are facing today in 102 years - we are at war. In the time of war, we must make sacrifices, and I thank all of our Ohio citizens for what they are doing and what they aren't doing. You are making a huge difference, and this difference will save lives," said Governor DeWine.
