The Don Wood Foundation has awarded Ohio Northern University’s T.J. Smull College of Engineering a grant to develop a new advanced metals laboratory. The facility will prepare students for careers in advanced manufacturing and help graduates meet the needs of regional manufacturing companies.
In honor of this investment in the university, the new lab will be named the Don Wood Foundation Advanced Metal Technology Lab, which is anticipated to open in fall 2024.
A letter from coach Kyleigh Woodruff and the Ada High School volleyball team:
Ada’s volleyball team held our annual Dig for a Cure event on Monday, October 2nd to battle against cancer and raise money for The Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) Network Foundation. This year Ada and Upper Scioto Valley schools worked together to raise a grand total of $2,370.12. A breakdown of our total amount raised includes: $951 on raffle baskets, $631.50 at our bake sale, $89 on our serving game, $414.62 donations during “Storm the Fans”, and $284 on t-shirt sales. This grand total would not have been possible without the generous donations that we received from not only both teams and staff but also our community.
