On Thursday, June 23, Ada residents might think for a moment that the clock turned back to the 1920s.
That's because Ada will be visited by nearly 40 Model A Fords. These vehicles range in model year from 1928 to 1931.
They will be on exhibit in the Ada depot parking lot and are part of an all-day celebration.
In cooperation with the Buy Ada First and Ada Area Chamber of Commerce, several activities are planned to entertain the visiting Model A drivers. Some of these activities are open to the public.
Specifically, the first Music on Main luncheon and cruise in of the season takes place in the depot park from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
