An elderly woman is said to have died in the room that became my son’s nursery. I never really experienced anything bone-chillingly creepy until after I gave birth to James.
One night however, when James was only a few months old, noise through the baby monitor roused me from sleep, which was nothing out of the ordinary. As I was crawling out of bed, though, I realized that something wasn’t quite right. It wasn’t my son’s crying that woke me up; someone was singing a lullaby.
Ada Bingo plays on Thursdays at the Alumni N-men’s Building in downtown Ada. (No Bingo on Thanksgiving.)
Doors open at 5:30 p.m.; Bingo begins at 6:55 p.m. Ada Bingo uses new, radio-controlled electronic machines, as well as, traditional paper packages. Proceeds from Ada Bingo benefits the Ada Lion's Club, Ada Music Boosters and the Ada-Liberty Volunteer Fire Department.
And, there are only two Bingo Bonus Nights left!

For many Ada area residents, ReStore, 210 N. Main St., is the place where the action is. ReStore’s November newsletter was recently released and it share many of the events recently held and planned later this fall.
The newsletter offers updates on:
• Crockpot Tuesdays
• Daily lunches
• Monthly dances (see photo above)
In November ReStore plans a Thanksgiving dinner and coat drive. In December there’s an auction to benefit the Beacon Fund.
There’s always an opportunity to volunteer. Opportunities are available to volunteer at Marco’s Closet and during the Thanksgiving dinner.
