More hanging baskets will grace Main Street this year. And, ONU will do its part to add to the beauty of Main Street for pedestrians and motorists.

People like the grand floral display. The Village has had many positive comments about them since the project began two years ago. Each year the number of baskets has increased, thanks to generous donors.

The large, multicolored baskets are well cared for by Cheryl Geer of the street department, who is a master gardener. She has some help from Jamie Hall, assistant village administrator who has an extensive background in horticulture. A dab of fertilizer helps, too.

"That's how you do it, pet the snake with two fingers," says James Craker, 3, who attended an ONU Earth Week program at the pharmacy building Friday afternoon. Four members from the Toledo Zoo put on a program about conservation and care of animals as well as telling about strides made at the zoo in recent years. Watch the Icon this weekend for lots more zoo photos. (Monty Siekerman photo)

Whatever happened to the efforts to have a dog park in Ada? Jimmy Wilson attended the park board monthly meeting on Monday night to say he was willing to take leadership to make the proposed park become a reality.

Wilson, a business professor and former village councilman, learned that a couple of years ago, the park board agreed to dedicate some land for a dog park. The property is located near the end of East Lehr Avenue, north of the horse arena.
