Ella Marshall, Ada band drummer, was part of the Ada Kiwanis Halloween parade on Monday. Check out all the Halloween photos and a parade video by clicking here.
Note:Here's an Ada Halloween story. Leland Crouse alerted the Icon about it, which was originally posted in Betty Miller's Small Town Sampler on Oct. 24, 1990.
Sitting in a group of friends one of the ladies brought up a story about seeing a ghost at her downtown apartment. I had to hear the whole story and went to visit my friend.
My friend’s husband bought a building in Ada. For several years the couple had lived on the second floor apartment while they remodeled the third floor, a former lodge hall where meetings and entertainment were held from 1905 until sometime in the 1940s.
Ada High School will hold its annual Financial Aid presentation for students, parents and community members on Tuesday, Nov. 5, at 6:30 p.m. in the media center at the school.
Topics to be discussed will be the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), source for aid, and specific concerns. A representative from Ohio Northern University will discuss college and university financial aid. The meeting is open to the public.

The Ada football team can salvage a disappointing season with an upset of backyard arch-rival Allen East Friday in the regular season finale.
A Bulldog victory would deprive AE (8-1, 5-1 NWC) a share of the league title, and possibly also a playoff spot.
On the other hand, with a victory AE will grab at least a share of their first conference title since 1995 - and clinch its first playoff berth in 13 years.
The Mustangs won 20-14 at home vs. Crestview in week nine to stay in a three-way tie for the league lead with two-time defending champion Spencerville, and 2018 co-champion Columbus Grove.
The Ohio Northern women's soccer team moved up one spot to No. 20 in the latest United Soccer Coaches Poll. The Polar Bears are also receiving votes in the D3soccer.com top 25.
Messiah (Pa.) claimed the top spot in the United Soccer Coaches Poll for the second consecutive week, while William Smith (N.Y.) and Washington (Mo.) rounded out the top three. Ohio Athletic Conference member Otterbein was ranked No. 17.
Northern — which boasts a 13-2-2 overall record and is riding a nine-game win streak — travels to Otterbein Wednesday for a 7 p.m. contest at Memorial Stadium.
