Ohio Northern University will host a lecture by Dr. James Estes, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of California at Santa Cruz and research biologist at the Institute for Marine Sciences, in the Freed Center for the Performing Arts on Monday, March 14, at 7:30 p.m. This lecture is free and open to the public.
Estes’ presentation, titled “Apex Predators and Nature’s Functions,” is part of the Keiser Distinguished Lectureship in Life Sciences program, named in honor of ONU alumnus Terry D. Keiser, professor of biological sciences and director of University sustainability.
Second and third graders in Ada Schools presented "Lemonade" on Thursday afternoon in the school auditorium. (The program should have been titled "Snow Cone" on one of the few days in February this year to see the white stuff come down.)
Ada has a large group of second and third graders with four classes in second and three in third.
The program, drawing many family members in the audience, was headed up by music teacher Mrs. McPeeks. (Monty Siekerman)
ReStore begins 2016 with a makeover: new paint and, most importantly, a new floor.
That makeover is featured in the winter ReStore newsletter, which is an attachment at the bottom of this story.
The old floor — unattractive and unsafe — was replaced with new multicolor linoleum, textured for additional stability. “It looks nice and it feels good when you walk on it,” said Dana Walters, ReStore director. “We don’t have to trip over the loose tiles.”

Warmer temperatures on Sunday were the kiss of death for snowmen in Ada. And so we present a "Requiem for Roger's Snowman."
Roger says his snowman was over seven feet tall originally. Now it is nowhere near that tall, and the carrot nose, hat, and scarf lie scattered on the ground.
