Ohio Northern University is currently registering businesses and residents for its second annual Ada Civic Engagement (ACE) Day to be held on Saturday, Aug. 24 from 10 a.m. to noon.

The ACE program is designed to engage incoming students with the community. A partnership with the village of Ada, ACE will provide opportunities for ONU’s first-year students to not only engage in the community but also contribute to the village’s beautification.

An "ACE site" is any community organization or individual that has a need and would be willing to provide a service project for ONU students. The types of service opportunities could range from painting, landscaping, planting trees, cleaning, washing fire trucks, decorating, cooking, etc. The ACE site is responsible for providing all materials, tools and directions for how the project is to be carried out as well as supervision at your project.

Registration forms will be accepted through Aug. 1 and can be found at www.onu.edu/orientation/aceday
