If the girls are on the field for a powderpuff football game, who does that leave to be the cheerleaders? These brave souls: Reece Evans, Alex Morgan, Ethan Hull...but their nail polish leaves a bit to be desired. Work on it guys. BOTTOM PHOTO: Cookies anyone? Elizabeth Durkin thinks it's a hoot that Andrew Roff volunteers to sell sweets at the powderpuff football game...so she bought some and got a good laugh, too. The game was Sunday evening.

Here's a neat post from the Michael Harnishfeger, Ada Police Chief. It's from the police department's Facebook posted Tuesday:

Today while walking the halls of Ada school I discovered that it was Heroes and Villains Day.

Carisa Temple is a big fan of police and honored our profession by wearing her own police uniform. Carisa's uncle is a law enforcement professional with the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

Thanks Carisa, glad we are the heroes and not the villains :)

Always a pleasure to interact with our youth. The future is bright in Ada, Ohio.
