Ohio Northern University is currently registering organizations, businesses, and residents for its third annual Ada Civic Engagement (ACE) Day to be held on Saturday, Aug. 23, from 10 a.m. to noon.

A partnership with the village of Ada, the ACE Day program provides opportunities for ONU’s first-year students to not only engage with the community but also contribute to the village’s beautification.

An “ACE site” is any community organization, business, 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 and planting trees to cleaning, washing fire trucks, decorating and cooking. 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  during the project.

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