The most immediate improvement discussed is installation of turf at War Memorial Field

The Liberty Township Park District Board and Ada Schools have been meeting to discuss renewal of the school contract with the park board for use of facilities.

Part of the talks have been about ways to improve the fields and facilities going forward to improve usability and safety for many athletic teams.

While talks have included strategic planning for improvements to be made in the future, the most immediate improvement discussed is the installation of turf at the Ada War Memorial Field.

One of the positive "signs" of 2020 was the return of this historic Ada sign. It's now on display in the main floor of the municipal building. It returned home last spring and was originally posted at an Ada village entrance where it was stolen several decades ago.
