It’s nice to find a photo of an Ada water tower and a little piece of the history of the community a thousand miles away.
There it was—a football for sale at Dick’s Sporting Goods in Lakeland, Fla., with one side of the package showing the Ada water tower and a brief history of the Ada-made Wilson football.
Weather permitting, Ada area girls “and their favorite adult” are invited to a “Reach for the Stars” evening at the Ada elementary school cafeteria from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 31.
The evening’s theme is being a space science explorer.
The program is by the Girl Scouts of Western Ohio. The event is for girls who are not currently participating in Girl Scouts this year.
Here’s what’s in store during the evening:
• create moon phases with cookies
• make a shadow poster
• make a star pattern of your own – in the shape of you
The Lady Rams and Bulldogs go hard at it under the basket before a nice crowd at Ada High School last evening despite the cold weather. From left to right are Mariam Lee, Briona Hurley, Miranda Wills, Allison Moore, Kirsten Poling shooting, and Kylie Acheson. Upper Scioto Valley won the contest 48-36. Both teams play Thursday evening games this week as Ada travels to Spencerville and USV goes to Waynesfield-Goshen. (Carl Wilkerson photo)
