Here's the latest list of activities from the Hardin County Chamber and Business Alliance:

Ada ReStore and Food Pantry benefit from ONU "Don't Throw It Out" program

This year, as part of a campus recycling effort, Bill Kent, manager Mail Center and Recyling at Ohio Northern University implemented a program called, "When You Move Out, Don't Throw It Out."

It works like this, according to Kent: "As the ONU students prepare to move out for the summer, the campus dumpsters are usually full of items that could be used by someone.

"So, instead of filling the dumpsters, student will bring items in good condition to the ONU Distribution Center (old bowling alley)."

Ada schools, Township fire levy passes, USV levy passes

Buy Local First Hardin County spring scavenger hunt in the works

The Hardin County Chamber & Business Alliance will host a Buy Local First Hardin County Spring Scavenger Hunt May 25 to June 3. The Alliance is currently seeking 30 businesses to partner with.

This effort is designed to encourage residents to keep their dollars within the community.

The focus of the campaign is to inform community members about the economic and cultural benefits of buying local. Buy Local First Hardin County firmly believes that buying locally helps to keep Hardin County unique, reduces environmental impact, creates more jobs, and encourages local success.
