Ada community slowing opening up
April is here, the weather is warming and Ada is slowing opening up.
The month’s Hometown Happenings is evidence of the community’s year-long waiting to turn the page.
Among highlights include performances of the spring Ada High School musical, a livestream of ONU’s steel drum and percussion in concert, several additional ONU livestream musical performances and a PaintINN at the Inn at ONU.
This month’s Icon Hometown Happenings includes a listing of events from:
• Ada community
• Ada schools
• Ohio Northern University
• The Freed Center
• The Inn at ONU
• Public meetings
• Village service schedule
• Ada Public Library
April events are on a printer-friendly attachment below. Darlene Bowers compiles the calendar for the Icon.
