There's nothing like a small-town summer festival. And, the Ada Farmers and Merchants Picnic is right up there with the best of them. After all it's, 106 years and running.
A parade, tractor pull, horse competition, kiddie tractor pull, lots of food and entertainment is always part of the fun.
Icon photographer Ken Collins shares photos from the park in this series. Watch the Icon tomorrow for his F&M parade photos.
