Ada sixth graders pitch in for a good cause

As a community service, 62 Ada 6th graders pitched in Tuesday afternoon to help make the Railroad Park a more beautiful place this season.

Many of the students mulched the numerous flower beds while others weeded. Several students also went down Main Street to clip away wild shoots from the pear trees and planted pear trees as well.

Help from 6th graders is an annual event each May.
