The first ever Ada Historical Society dinner and membership drive will be held on Monday, May 7. Those who join that evening will be charter members of the organization.
There will be an open reception from 5-6:30 p.m. at the Railroad Depot.
“We look forward to meeting you and having an opportunity to introduce our group and goals,” said President Rhett Grant. “If you have an interesting piece of your history that you would like to share, bring your stories and photos as we would love to see and hear them.” There will be several historical displays to be viewed at the reception.

It’s time to celebrate...cut the ribbon and open the door of the Ada Public Library’s new look, a facility that will probably do the community well into the next century.
Work on the renovation and addition has been going on since last July. Miraculously, the library closed for only one week during that time (to install ceiling tiles and wiring).
Patrons continued to flow into the library during construction, and they came out in force on Saturday during the Grand Re-Opening, because now all is done, the dust cleared, even the grass seed applied.
