Summer is right around the corner and who isn’t ready for the sun and heat?
Be prepared for those hot days. You can beat the Saturday, May 27, opening day rush and buy your season pass for the Ada pool now.
Passes for 2017 are $45 per person through June 11. After June 11, passes cost $55 per person.
There is a season-long discount of $10 per person for any resident/taxpayer who works or lives within the Ada village limits and is required to file and pay village income tax (subject to verification).
The discount is the village way of saying thanks to taxpayers, because .15% of the village’s income tax is designated to support the pool.
