Ada's latest news

Former bar at SR 235 and Old 30 will become a family restaurant

Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, September 21, 2015

By Monty Siekerman
Owlsburg - once a school,  a church, a tractor dealership, and most recently a bar - gets a new lease on life as a family restaurant.

New owner David "Rico" Rodriguez plans to open Cherico's Restaurant at the corner of State Route 235 and Old Route 30. Target date for opening is November.

A major renovation is underway on the structure, probably 150 years old, with efforts to save some of the past handiwork such as the yellow pine floor and the stamped tile ceiling made of tin.

In addition to the first floor, a large room upstairs will be available for dining. Outdoor patios will be built on three sides.

Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, September 21, 2015

Rain...trains...wide loads on State Route 235.

Don't remember the 30th annual Ada Area Chamber of Commerce's Harvest and Herb Festival with those scenes.

Instead, Scott and Arlene Allison, festival co-chairs, made certain that the show went on. And it did.

Football: Stifling Spencerville defense stops Bulldogs

Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, September 21, 2015

By Dusty Donley

The typically high-powered Ada offense couldn't find its groove against a stifling Spencerville defense as the Bulldogs dropped their Northwest Conference opener to the Bearcats, 35-7.

Four interceptions and an injury to starting quarterback Seth Conley contributed to the road loss. Ada now finds itself 2-2 on the season and 0-1 in the NWC.

A Zach Goecke 51-yard touchdown run and a Wyatt Krouskop pick six got things rolling for the Bearcats early, as they would take a 13-0 first quarter lead.
