How do you make a football?
Wilson employees shared their trade secrets with persons attending Saturday's Made in Ada Wilson Football Festival. During the fest', fans had the unique opportunity to buy a one-of-a-kind football and watch it being created.
Four stations in the process included: sewing, turning, lacing and molding the footballs in a unique assemblyline fashion.
In these photos are Ashley Lamb, sewing; Derek Gibson, turning, Chrissie Oakes, lacing and Gibson, at the molder.
One of fans to purchase a football was Zane Wilson, 8, of Findlay, who now has a football with a "Wilson" name on it.
