Icon dog of the week - Sammy

Posted by Monty Siekerman on Monday, July 31, 2017

Meet Sammy. Sammy is a  4 year old neutered male shepherd mix. He weighs 47 pounds.  No kids, please. Can you give Sammy a forever home?

To give a dog a forever home, contact the Hardin County dog shelter. It is located at 49 Jones Road on the west side of Kenton.

Hours: 9 am to 4 pm on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. Phone: 419-674-2209.

Generally, about 20 to 25 dogs are available for viewing.

The shelter is also the place to contact for giving up a dog, if you find a lost or stray dog, or if you come in contact with a vicious dog. It costs $20 to surrender a dog, which pays for deworming and immunizations for when it is rescued.

Gospel music fills the air in the park

Five hours of Christian music
Posted by Fred Steiner on Sunday, July 30, 2017

Story and photos by Monty Siekerman
Dana Walters prayers were answered.

She organized a Gospel Sing at Ada War Memorial Park on Saturday, hoping for good weather...and the weather was perfect with temps in the mid 70s, a nice breeze, and plenty of sunshine.

Here, sisters Sandi and Kaylee of Alger were among several vocalists from Northwest Ohio who provided five hours of Christian music.

About 100 people enjoyed the music at any one time, sitting in the shade at picnic tables or in lawn chairs they brought with them.  Several in the audience raised their arms in praise during the songs.
