The newly-formed Ada Historical Society met for the fourth time on Monday evening at the Ada Public Library.
Two new members of the organizing committee attended, bringing to 17 the number of residents who are interested in forming the Society to preserve local history.
The next meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 8, at the library. All those interested in Ada/Liberty Township history are invited to attend.
ONU senior Emily Richards (Delaware/Hayes) has been named the Div. III All-Ohio Female Runner of the Year for the 2017 season.
Richards was named the Runner Up at both the OAC Championships and at the Div. III Great Lakes Regional meets, before going on to be named an All-American at the 2017 Div. III National Championships. She earned the OAC Runner of the Year honor for the first time in her career.
The senior posted a ninth place finish at the National Championships in a career-best time of 21:02, two seconds off of the school record of 21:00 by Alison (Steinbrunner) Kwiat in 2012.
The Blair and Cindy Rorabaugh home on Christopher Circle includes many new cutouts decorating their yard for Christmas this year. Cindy did the sawing using patterns from Jane Helser. Blair installed the creation. Grandsons Aaron, 8, and Andrew, 12, did the painting. The Rorabaughs are familiar with snow, having served a Nazarene church in Alaska before retiring to Ada.
