Spotted on a Hancock County car driving south on Main Street in Ada. An appropriate plate to see just after the election when Americans were free to vote for many government officials from local to federal levels. This driver is a parachutist.

It was Christmas at ReStore on Friday evening with free gifts, free wrapping, and Santa.
Many children were there to choose from a slew of gifts donated to ReStore. Many "elves" helped wrap the presents. Santa heard wishes from the kids. Cookies and punch were available.
Many youngsters (and adults, too) left with smiles on their faces. Christmas will be happier this year thanks to the givers and staff at ReStore.
Here are the plans for the swimming pool renovations to take place next fall:
* A splash pool will be installed just south of the current pool; splash pools are popular now and being added to pools in villages and large cities.
* The bathhouse will be renovated.
* A new concession stand will be built.
* A new filtration system will be built on the north side of the bathhouse.
* Concrete around the pool will be replaced.
The pool itself will be unchanged.
––Here's the timeline: the Village will accept bids in February and award bids in March. Work will begin after the pool closes for the 2017 season in September.
