The 50th annual Ada Town and Gown Banquet will be held in the McIntosh Center ballroom on the campus of Ohio Northern University on Monday, Nov. 2, at 6:30 p.m. Guests may arrive at 6 p.m.

The Town and Gown Association was established in 1957 by a group of townspeople and ONU personnel to develop and maintain a strong positive relationship between the village of Ada and Ohio Northern. As with each year, the honor of Distinguished Citizen of the Year will be given to an individual nominated by fellow citizens.

Tickets are available for $16 per person at the following locations: Ohio Northern University’s Office of Human Resources, Liberty National Bank, Quest Federal Credit Union and the McIntosh Center Information Desk.

In addition to naming the Distinguished Citizen of the Year at the banquet, new owners of business/industries in Ada as well as new employees of the Ada School System, ONU and the village of Ada will be introduced.

New faculty and staff of Ohio Northern University will receive complimentary tickets from the Town and Gown committee.
