Twins Day, held last Wednesday, offered a glance at teachers and staff, high school students, a set of triplets and one of quads, plus several sets of real twins.
Along with Twins Day was Formal Day, Spirit Day, PJ Day and one we forgot.
Here’s nine sets of twins-triplets-quads and real twins who played their part very well.
If you happened to look into the sky on Saturday you might have seen Kevin Mierzejewski waving to you.
Kevin put it this way: “What a Fun Day!” We had five open-air flying machines in the air at the Ada Airport to participate in a world wide flying event in an attempt to set a Guinness World Record.
“I personally flew three different planes, what an experience,” he added.

On Nov 3, Ohioans will have the opportunity to solve a divisive problem facing our state. Issue 1 defines a new method for drawing state legislative districts and embodies a compromise reached by Legislators of both parties.
It was put on the ballot by an overwhelming, bi-partisan vote in both the Ohio House and Senate. After many proposals brought forth by legislators and other political interests, Issue 1 is the first proposal brought to the voters on a bipartisan basis while establishing stronger transparency and accountability in the way state legislative districts are drawn.
Here's how the Polar Bear teams fared last week (see attachment) and who they play this week.

Ohio Northern University’s Freed Center for the Performing Arts will present “Bram Stoker’s Dracula,” adapted by Charles Morey and performed by the Los Angeles Theatre Works, on Saturday, Oct. 17, at 7:30 p.m.
In Charles Morey’s acclaimed adaptation, Count Dracula slips quietly into Victorian London with a cargo of his native Transylvanian soil, necessary for rest between his victims. The city seems helpless against his frightful power, and only one man, the smart and resourceful Dr. Van Helsing, can stop the carnage.
Charles T. Downer, 86, died on Thursday, Oct. 8, 2015, at 3:20 a.m. at Lost Creek Care Center of Lima.
He was born on April 3, 1929, in Columbus, Ohio, to John and Elizabeth (Dempsey) Downer who preceded him in death. He married Linda Allen from Kenton on Aug. 16, 1974, and she preceded him in death.
Charles was a U.S. Navy veteran who served as a CB and he retired from Insurance Sales, where he worked in management and training.

For a third straight week, it was the superb play of the defense that propelled Ada to a league win as the host Bulldogs shut-out the Paulding Panthers 44-0.
The hard-nosed Ada defensive unit celebrated Homecoming by holding the Panthers to a measly 39 yards of total offense.
The victory extends Ada's win streak to three games, improving their record to 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the Northwest Conference.
Neither team found the end zone in the first quarter, but the next 12 minutes were a completely different story as the Bulldog offense racked up 21 points in the second quarter.
For the fourth straight year the Arts Advocacy Collaborative of West Central Ohio is looking to once again award members of the area for their contributions to the arts community. Each year three winners are selected under the categories of Creator, Advocate and Philanthropist.
The Creator Award is presented to an artist whose work has made a significant impact on his or her discipline and also shows creativity and imagination that exemplifies the highest level of achievement in a particular discipline while advancing the art form.
