Ohio Northern University is currently registering organizations, businesses and residents for its fifth annual Ada Community Engagement (ACE) Day to be held from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Aug. 18. Friday, Aug. 3, is the deadline to register.
A partnership with the village of Ada, the ACE Day program provides opportunities for ONU’s first-year students to not only engage with the community but also contribute to the village’s beautification.
An “ACE site” is any community organization, business or individual that has a need and would be willing to provide a service project for ONU students.
