Crisp autumn air and sunny skies greeted cryptid enthusiasts at the third annual Ohio Bigfoot Jamboree at Ada’s War Memorial Park on October 3. (A cryptid is a being whose existence is known through folklore and individual accounts, but has yet to be confirmed by physical or scientific proof.)
Coordinated by Jay Wolber and Justin England—hosts of the Cryptids of the Corn podcast and veterans of the Bigfoot event circuit—the Ohio Bigfoot Jamboree brought together vendors, guest speakers and fans from across the region and beyond.
The following 11 land transfers took place in the Ada Exempted Village School District in September 2026 as reported on the website of the Hardin County, Ohio auditor Michael T. Bacon and Hancock County, Ohio auditor Charity Rauschenberg.
