Tickets are now on sale for the Ada Music Boosters chicken barbecue.
It is held at the Ada Village Park prior to the first home football game of the year from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., Friday, Aug. 26, when the Bulldogs host Upper Scioto Valley.
The barbecue is a major fundraiser for the boosters. Proceeds benefit numerous projects for Ada’s instrumental and vocal music programs.
Tickets are on sale now through Thursday, Aug. 18, at the following locations:
• Contact any Ada High School Marching Band or Guard member
• Contact Kelly MacDonald at 330-212-3215. Leave your name, phone number or email to receive a confirmation.

Priced at $8, the dinners include one-half barbecue grilled chicken, green beans, cheesy potatoes and a dinner roll. Cold drinks are available the day of pick-up for 50 cents each. The dinners are provided by BBQ Express.
According to the Boosters, “The Ada Music Boosters chicken barbecue is a long-standing Ada tradition because so many find it to be an easy way for families to enjoy a quick and convenient dinner before the first home football game of the season. Nearly a thousand dinners are sold every year and we encourage you to buy your tickets early again this year.”
Proceeds from this sale are needed for several important upcoming projects for the band, choir and Varsity Singers as we head into the new school year.
Students are also able to earn money towards their travel account through the sale of Chicken barbecue tickets.
