Kaylyn Goodman, a member of Ada Barnyard Farmers 4-H Club, cuddles with a goat during a petting zoo on Saturday. Members of the 4-H club brought several animals to the Ada Public Library's summer reading program kick off. Watch for more photos later.
Here we go! This is the first letter in our summer letter contest!
Each week in June and ending in the first week of July, The Icon will post two photos revealing one letter (or number) taken from Main Street Ada buildings and structures. All photos were taken in May by the Icon’s official contest photographer, Bailey Bowers. The photos cover Main from College Avenue on the south to Highland Avenue on the north.
We invite Icon viewers to keep track of the letters by identifying each letter’s location. An entry form is attached to this story for viewers to keep up to date in the contest.
Wednesday's thundershowers were an odd mix of serious flooding on one property and mere sprinkles on another. The Icon has heard reports of rain of .25 inches all the way to over 4 inches.
Perhaps the heaviest hit area was between Lincoln Highway and State Route 81 north of Ada.
Here are views of the rain taken by Steve Stratton from his residence on Pevee Road. The views include a field behind his residence - no it's not Riley Creek or any stream.
