FROM FACEBOOK__Sheriff Keith Everhart posted: "I could not be prouder of YOUR Dispatchers and Deputies today. In 32 years, I do not recall a crazier day when it comes to wind and 911 emergency calls. Everyone at the office pitched in and made things happen, whether that was out on the road with flipped over trucks, downed trees and power lines or in dispatch answering radios and phones. It was so crazy that we had dispatchers take over the fiscal office because we ran out of work stations in dispatch (yes, our technology allows for that. Who knew? I didn’t). Thank you to everyone at the Hardin County Sheriff's Office. We have an amazing team. Well done.

In 2026, I'm looking to "put more Ada in the Icon." The Icon needs freelance writers and photographers who live in Ada or have a strong relationship with the community.
