Nothing like an evening in the park with Music on Main
With all the makings of a small-town evening out, Ada residents enjoyed Music on Main Friday night at the downtown depot park.
LOTS OF PHOTOS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS STORY.
Elements of the evening included a Kiwanis Club chicken barbecue and live music by Common Thread - with Kevin Plaugher, Ada native.
The evening also included free ice cream from Dietsch's - your choice, chocolate or vanilla. There were a half-dozen local vendors displaying and selling their products inside the depot and some V-8 cars on display that love to chug gas.
Several downtown businesses were open, including Ada's newest, Gallery of the Arts.
The Buy Ada First Committee sponsored the evening. The ad hoc group continues to promote Ada with Music on Main, cash mobs and other events that assist in making Ada a vibrant community.
