The Ada Icon needs viewers assistance. We have 2016 on our mind, and you can help.
We are compiling several 2016 lists.
• One is a list of Ada events for our on-going 2016 calendar. Event received will be listed on the Icon's monthly calendar and also in our bi-monthly Ada Highlights calendar. These events will also go on our news announcement list. Our list includes everything from chicken barbecues, recitals, open houses, and, you get the idea.
• We always look for good stories. For businesses, we'd appreciate knowing if you have a special anniversary taking place in 2016.
• Other helpful information you may share with us is if any of your long-time employees will retire in 2016. We'll keep it a secret until the event, but we'd like to place them on our potential feature story calendar.
• And, as always, we seek in any story idea from you in 2016. For example, concerning birthdays, 2016 is a leap year. Do you know someone with a Feb. 29 birthday? Or, how about a Dec. 25 or Jan. 1 birthday?
• Our popular "15 minutes" feature welcomes your suggestions for email interviews with persons who grew up in Ada but now live elsewhere. Simply provide us with a name and email. We'll do the rest.
Send your events, story suggestions to: [email protected]. We'll take it from here.
