Is your mother or grandmother in this photo?

Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, September 19, 2016

It's possible.

This is the Ada High School junior-senior Girls' Athletic Association in the 1956-57 school year.

Had Title IV existed at this time perhaps there would be more girls' trophies in the Ada HS athletic showcase.

Festival---Downtown Ada, 6 a.m.
Many in the Village awoke early on Harvest and Herb Fest morning Saturday to prepare for the day, rain or shine.

Small showers, early on, did not keep food trucks and booth builders away. Main Street was a beehive of activity long before the sun shone.

Detour signs and barricades were up blocking traffic to all, except those who had work in the heart of town to do.

Giant pots of Amherst mums were neatly lined up in front of Hays Insurance. Usually they are sold out by 11 a.m.
