Sam Shriver of WLIO-TV interviews Zach Bragg during Ada Community Engagement (ACE) Day on Saturday.
Zach, whose summer job is working with a landscaping firm, helped at the Railroad Park gardens. About 300 incoming first-year students and faculty members volunteered in the community for two hours on Saturday morning.

Note: Ada chamber members held a "broom presentation" last week to the owners of Crafted by Us.
The "us" in Crafted by Us at 117 S. Main St., the newest business to open in Ada's historic downtown, is a trio of creative women: Terry Sayre, 48, and her daughters Brittany Galens, 28, and Marquita Metzger, 19.
"We all just wanted a store," said Sayre, "We just never had one."
The threesome, from Holland, a village west of Toledo, said they've talked for years of having a place to display and sell their handiwork.
Terry paints and loves to re-purpose flea market finds.
Renovation is completed and the first floor of ONU's Heterick Library opened in time for new-student orientation. Icon photographer Ken Collins went inside to get "oriented" with these photos.
This is the second in a series focusing on clergy in the Ada Icon community. Darlene Bowers compiles the interviews.
“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39.
