At Girl Scouts, girls are always counting down to the next adventure they will go on together.  Maybe it is artistic.  Maybe it's an experiment.  Maybe it's getting outside or helping the community. 

With Girl Scouting, girls make new friends and have a ton of new experiences that show how exciting the world is, and how awesome girls are. When girls just can't wait for what they'll do next, they can do anything they set their mind to! This is what Girl Scouts call the “I can’t wait to” feeling.

Overcast, rainy weather played havoc for both teams last Friday night as the Bulldogs traveled to Ft. Loramie for a non-conference battle with the Redskins. Sloppy field conditions led to a combined nine turnovers in route an ugly, 14-8 Bulldog loss. The defeat is Ada's first, moving their season record to 3-1.

The poor field conditions plagued both teams, producing 10 sacks for the Bulldog offense and only one combined offensive touchdown.
