Wilson/NLF back on top

Tim Reilly, a producer for Banner Collective in Chicago, videotapes the Wilson/NFL logos which are being painted on a water tower in Ada on Monday. He also took video of the manufacturing plant. The video will be on hand for Wilson's for social media, publicity, and advertising use. The Wilson football factory and ONU, whose name is on the other water tower, are two of Ada's claims to fame. The Wilson water tower, built in 1929, is being repaired and painted by L.C. United Painting, Sterling Heights, Mich. The Wilson tower is 134 feet high to the balcony, 168 feet high to the top. It holds 100,000 gallons. The newer ONU tower holds 300,000 gallons. The Village produces 500,000 gallons of water daily. (Monty Siekerman photo)
