It was a very Merry on Main evening

Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, December 1, 2014

Indeed, it was Merry on Main Monday evening in Ada. The Depot was filled with youth of all ages waiting to talk with Santa. 

Miss Vicki's Music Studio homeschool choir performed a recital of familiar and not-so-familiar Christmas music.

WATCH THE VIDEO AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS STORY.

Two horse and wagons give all in attendance an opportunity to take a spin around town.

There was plenty of punch and cookies to go around for everyone.

And, the depot park, now decorated for Christmas, adds a neat touch to Main Street.
